We also know that in the hectic world we all live in, time is a luxury. Combining these two notions, GIVE50 is a platform for every single one of us to do something good! In India today, while there is over a 96% enrollment rate in schools throughout the country, studies have shown that after three years of schooling in the government or public system, 60% of students still cannot read more than t
heir first name in their mother tongue. These abysmal statistics, have led to the creation of organizations such as Nai Disha Educational and Cultural Society, who provide supplementary after school programs (educational and extracurricular) to allow for children to receive the excellent education they deserve. Through the use of people’s usual routines- shopping, eating, working out, etc…- we have created a platform to contribute to the immense educational gap, through supporting Nai Disha Educational and Cultural Society. We have commenced this journey, with a multi-brand, curated, flash retail concept, where 50% of the proceeds went to Nai Disha. We plan to hold our next pop up within the first couple months of 2017, and hope to supplement those funds with events where a percentage of the proceeds will go towards supporting Nai Disha in their efforts towards educational equity.
