School children from our partner in India, Magic Bus, receiving our donated supplies
Earlier this year, through our partnership with Magic Bus, EAT.PRAY.MOVE was able to provide notebooks and school bags for 120 children. Many of these children go to a government-run school in Baina, one of the areas most in need in the state of Goa. Here, there is little money to support a child’s education as government-run schools are generally under resourced. Because of this, contributions like ours can go a long way in making a difference in the lives of these children. The notebooks are vital to be able to support the children in their education and to develop their literacy and numeracy skills – especially outside of school.
The bags play a vital role, allowing the children to carry the books and other important essentials to school. It also gives them a strong sense of pride. Magic Bus continues to change the course of youth from some of India’s most underprivileged backgrounds and we are honored to be a part of that change. Our dream to give back and make a difference continues to manifest and could not be accomplished without our amazing guests.
