What we do
VFSR seeks enduring change in the lives of children and their families. We hope that by providing needy children with a good education, a path to better opportunities is created. Our objective is that the education of one child now will have a long-lasting impact as education is shown to have positive effects for future generations
VFSR began as an outreach program in the slum communities, to respond to the needs of children belonging to underserved communities, especially those children who are working and not in school. VFSR strategy includes direct work with children and families in vulnerable communities.
VFSR activities extend to several districts in the country –VFSR works extensively in rural areas and different communities in urban areas. All in all, VFSR reaches hundreds of children annually through its direct and indirect interventions.
