Annual Report from HAPC (Calcutta)

16th July 2007

Activities of Help A Poor Child (Calcutta) for 2006-2007

Altogether Rs. 66,455.00 was spent on Children’s Welfare to finance Coaching Classes, Medical and Educational Aid.

From June till September special coaching classes were organized in the evenings for 18 students who were weak in Maths, Science, etc.  The students benefited much and two students actually passed for the first time in Hindi!  All the 18 students stayed back after school, were given a warm nourishing lunch followed by a bit of rest and games.  At the tuition break they were given a glass of milk and some snacks.  However, as time went on the two teachers who were paid together Rs. 4,500 p.m. began to be irregular and also come very late for their classes.  As the Principal was caught up in matters outlined further below she could not fill in for them and so the classes have been temporarily discontinued.
