PBS: New Heroes: Inderjit Khurana - Train Platform Schools India 01/02
Project: Ruchika School Social Service Organization (RSSO), Train Platform Schools Location: Orissa, India As a schoolteacher, Inderjit Khurana used to take the train to work. And each day, in the stations, she would come into contact with dozens of children who spent their days begging from train passengers rather than attending school. She learned that it was not a rare or isolated problem and that millions of children in India live on the streets. Convinced that these children would never be able to escape their conditions of poverty and homelessness without education, and realizing that it would be impossible to enroll these children in school, Inderjit decided to create a model program for “taking the school to the most out-of-school children.” Khurana’s “train platform schools” aim to provide a creative school atmosphere and equip children with the basic levels of education necessary to allow them to work productively, enjoy many of life’s pleasures, and become positive contributors to their communities. Khurana’s ultimate goals reach far beyond the 20 platform schools she and her colleagues have created in India’s Bhubaneswar region. She is determined that her program become a model for effectively changing the lives of the poorest children throughout India and the world.

Holiday Inn Barry’s Tickets - I Recommend Getting Your Los Angeles Tickets From the Down Town Office
It is no secret by now that I live and die by my pen and as such it is only natural I write and blog about everything. One of my favorite things to share with people are my thoughts and feelings and varying perspectives on major events. Part of my experience in all the concerts and games I’ve been to is getting the tickets; finding the right price, decent seats, and without being given the runaround from your ticket agency are the things I look for
