Future Hope Nederland

Stichting Future Hope Nederland werft sinds 1993 fondsen voor de dagelijkse onkosten van Future Hope in India.

Future Hope biedt opvang en opleiding aan honderden kwetsbare kinderen die op straat of in de armste sloppenwijken van Kolkata, in India overleven.  Dit zijn kinderen die voortdurend blootgesteld zijn aan alle vormen van geweld, misdaden, ziektes, verslaving en kinderarbeid.

100% Pass Rate in Class 10 & Class 12 Board Exams for our students

With usual assesments back post Covid every school faced a big challenge with drop outs due to mental health challenges and academic set backs from the pandemic and school closures. Many children across India pulled out of sitting their exams or dropped out of school.

However our commitment to teach all our students online throughout the pandemic, to provide counselling and to supply senior staff time for preparation, helped to overcome this. Our team worked hard for every Board examinee, they did extra classes till late hours, giving up their own holidays to assure them that we are there for doubt-clearing, concept teaching, revision and practice. This paid off.

All our students appeared for their class 10 and 12 board examinations with confidence and the results are heartening. All 27 students in Class 10 cleared their exams and 28 students in Class 12 passed their exams and are planning to go on to higher education or skills training. 

Future Hope is growing - with the team and children of Khelo Rugby becoming part of the family.  

Khelo Rugby is all about being in the community - playing rugby, which we all love - but also supporting children as they grow up with school and college education, or communication classes.

Working with nearly 2,000 children in 32 communities in Kolkata, a few hundred in the Saraswatipur tea gardens in North Bengal, Haripur in Jharkhand and Bangalore, we are excited to get to know more about them and bring our 35 years experience of creating opportunity to the young lives of the super children of Khelo Rugby. 

There is much to be done, but with our joint experience we hope to brighten futures for many more children.
