Through your abundant love and generosity, Embers provides summer activities and outings where our children can play and explore away from the red-light area into which they were born. This year, they have visited a water park for the first time, participated in dance classes, and enrolled in a soccer camp. "The children in Turbhe live in an area fraught with danger," says Susanna Santosh, our Director of Education. "Their regular play area is a bare road or a mountain of rubble. Many kids just get shut up in the four walls of a tiny hut, locked in by parents who are protecting them from the harsh realities outside." Through Sahasee Embers Children's Center, we create space for them to enjoy their childhood in a safe environment – places where they can develop friendships, create, and be inspired. "The kids get to finally be kids," says Susanna. GIVE TODAY

As the next academic year rolls around, Embers is thrilled to announce that we have enrolled 26 new children at a private school through G.R.A.C.E. Initiative and accepted 7 new children into preschool at Sahasee Embers ! We are now educating 93 students towards a future filled with opportunity and freedom. Through your incredible love and generosity, Embers provides preschool as well as primary, secondary, college, and graduate-level education to students who are the very first generation to be educated in their families. This year brings the greatest number of students Embers has committed to empower. "Education is the way forward, and [parents] see it as a way out of poverty – but it's so much more than that," says Susanna Santosh, our Director of Education. "It is so much more. It's a hope that children have." In our 93 children, we see hope. Will you stand with our students? GIVE TODAY
