THE BACKDROP
Toilets are a basic necessity for all, especially school kids. Open defecation poses a serious threat to the health and hygiene of school children. It's unsafe, unhygienic and inhibiting. Young girls and boys face shame and loss of personal dignity if there is no toilet at school. Some parents are also hesitant to send their children to school due to lack of proper toilets.
The Gramin Vikas Mire Adivasi School in Kashimira (off Mira Road) is a Government school attended by about 180 adivasi/ tribal children. The school has 5 classrooms and is in urgent need of a proper toilet. The students of this school come from underprivileged backgrounds.

(Above: The current state of the toilet.)
The current toilet building is in a dilapidated state as a huge tree fell on the structure and the school requires urgent support for construction. The students at the school currently do not have access to a toilet and they do not have an option but to defecate in the open. This has resulted in many students dropping out.

THE INITIATIVE
My classmates and I, from the Ram Ratna International School in Mumbai have taken it upon ourselves to help construct a toilet and provide a better environment for these underprivileged students. This is being done in partnership with the Rotary Club of Mumbai SOBO and Rotary Club of Worli Bombay Trust. The plan is to construct one building which would have three cubicles for girls and three cubicles for boys. This will eliminate open defecation, instil good hygiene practices, give them security and privacy.
Each of us have goals of INR 15000. Since we need to raise an enormous amount of INR 6.7L, please continue to fund my campaign even if it goes past its initial goal.
The total cost of construction is INR 6.7L. (This includes three cubicles each for boys and girls.)
ALL FUNDING HAS 80G BENEFITS.

This initiative will improve the health and hygiene of so many students now and for the years to come. Imagine how many students will have access to this basic facility because of you?

ABOUT ME
![](https://fadcdn.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/1117/Lead_image_49787.jpg)
My name is Aryan Agrawal. I am 14 years old and in Grade 9 in Ram Ratna International School, Mumbai.
It is shocking to know that many students in India do not have access to toilet facilities in school. I cannot imagine the plight faced by these students.
I have undertaken this campaign because I believe that it is very important for all students to have access to proper toilets. My classmates and I aim to help build toilets in the Gramin Vikas Mire Adivasi School, a school for the adivasi and the underprivileged children. Currently, the students are forced to defecate in the open because a huge tree fell on the one they had.
I believe this is an important cause as open defecation is detrimental to the household, society and the planet as a whole. The fact that raising INR 6.7 Lakhs will be a game-changer makes me elated. Getting a toilet will definitely transform the lives of the students of this school. The overall aim is to build 6 toilets for the school (in a single building which costs INR 6.7L to construct), 3 cubicles for boys and 3 for girls.
Please fund my campaign generously and together let’s transform the lives of these students.

How does crowdfunding work?
Crowdfunding in India is a relatively new concept and is growing very quickly.
It’s a concept that allows a large number of funders (like you) to fund an idea or a cause or event by giving small amounts of money online. Fueladream.com is a crowdfunding platform in India that allows for such pooling of funds. You can fund innovations and ideas on FuelADream and be the first to get these products or make them come true. You can also do a good turn by funding charities and causes through crowdfunding. When you fund a charity it’s more like a donation and you get small innovative rewards like a shout-out on an FB page or a thank you email from the beneficiaries.
