Dear Friends, Colleagues, and Well-Wishers,
I am reaching out with an urgent appeal on behalf of Mridul Raghuvanshi, a Class XI student from Varanasi whose education is at risk due to severe financial hardship.
Mridul lost his father at a young age and is being raised by his widowed mother, Smt. Chanchal Singh, who has been struggling to support her family amidst difficult social, legal, and economic circumstances. Despite these challenges, Mridul remains committed to his studies and dreams of building a better future through education.
For the past two years, Jan Mitra Nyas has stood with Mridul's educational journey. We supported his school fees in 2025 and contributed ₹15,000 in 2026. Unfortunately, due to our own limited resources and increasing demands from vulnerable families, we are unable to cover the remaining educational expenses.
Today, approximately ₹91,000 (about USD 1,175) is needed to ensure that Mridul can continue his education without interruption.
Education is not charity—it is an investment in human dignity, opportunity, and social justice.
We invite you to read the full appeal here:

Contributions are being received directly by the family for complete transparency:
UPI ID: raghuvanshicharu2@oksbi
Account Holder: Charu Raghuvanshi (Mridul's elder sister)
No amount is too small. Your contribution can help ensure that a deserving student remains in school and continues pursuing his dreams.
Please consider donating and sharing this appeal within your networks.
Together, we can transform concern into action and ensure that financial hardship does not deprive a child of his right to education.
With gratitude and hope,
