First Year
Following the Delhi pogrom in 2020, Shaagird recognized the
The impact of such violence on children and their education during
Their survey work is in north-east Delhi. It all began with a small
initiative known as the Smile Class, which aimed to provide these children with some respite amidst their despair. During the violence, all the belongings of these families, including their children’s books and stationery, were burned to ashes. To provide them with a place of relief, the Smile Class was established in Mustafabad, near the base camp. However, this initiative could not be fully realized at the
time due to the country-wide lockdown imposed as a result of
COVID-19.
Third Year
Shaagird Foundation’s Learning Center programs continue to
flourish. 120 children were enrolled in Hifz programs across the branches, receiving a strong foundation in Islamic scripture. An additional 320 children participate in the learning programs, focusing on core academic subjects.In the third year of our working, we incorporated more Learning Centers; Fatima Al Firhi, Talimul Quran, and Imaam ul Bukhari. Established in 2020 for children affected by the Delhi riots, Sunrise Public School in Loni Ghaziabad continued to provide a safe and nurturing learning environment.
Fifth Year
We travelled to riot-ridden areas like Bahraich, Sambhal, and Mandala; heard devastating stories; extricated them from the peril; and enrolled them in our educational institutions. We also assisted the orphans of Junaid, who was mob lynched by cow vigilantes, to complete their education. We conducted Annual Day, Sports Day, Independence Day, Republic Day, educational visits, and picnics for our students at Sunrise Public School. We arranged Iftar, Suhoor, ration kits, and Eidis for our orphans and poor children. We participated in human rights advocacy in Malaysia, Kuwait, Bangalore, and Chennai.
