Child Labor But No Children Education

I can’t put in words how I feel when seeing children do the labor tasks and leaving their childhood and education behind to earn for their families because of poverty.

Child labor is harmful to the minds of these innocent children. The consequences are worst. In most cases, the children are driven from their childhood phase that ultimately cuts their health, innocence, and education. In Pakistan, the families coming from rural areas force their children to earn for them instead of letting their children go to schools. It is the root problem of Pakistan that the literacy rate is low.

Poverty, expensive education, illiteracy of parents, no law implementation for the rights of children are the main reasons behind the child labor that eventually produces lack of education.

For this cause, my idea is to create a platform for these children that they can have education side by side of earning for their families. Because if they will only earn through this they won’t ever finish the poverty.
So, I will create awareness through social media platforms for children’s education and collect donations for these needy children. I will be doing voluntary work with Educational NGOs so that the children doing the labor work can get enough education. The donations will be collected through easy paisa and awareness could be done through social media. I will be purchasing all the educational things like books, pencils, colors and will provide them to the concerned NGO so that they can create and tell the importance of education to these children.

Educational NGO’s educating less privileged children

In short, connecting these families of children who are involved in child labor with the NGOs so that they can help the children have education and if they will be literate they can earn a good amount and change their living. The donations will be collected in months or two for better education.
My idea is all about social voluntary work to create a change in lifestyle in these less privileged families.

RIGHT TO EDUCATION…RIGHT TO HOPE.
