In small places, close to home \u2013 so close and so small that they cannot be seen on any maps of the world. Yet they are the world of the individual person; the neighborhood he lives in; the school or college he attends; the factory, farm, or office where he works. Such are the places where every man, woman, and child seeks equal justice, equal opportunity, equal dignity without discrimination. Unless these rights have meaning there, they have little meaning anywhere. Without concerned citizen action to uphold them close to home, we shall look in vain for progress in the larger world.&#8221; Education\u2026 is the key to unlocking other human rights.&#8221; Eleanor Roosevelt<\/p>\n<p>The right to powerful education cannot be expressed enough. Like Sydney J. Harris said \u201cThe whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows.\u201d It gives people the skills and tools they need, it broadens one&#8217;s horizons and it is the basis of the development of an individual and the society at large.<\/p>\n<p>For these reasons we provide powerful after school education to children in rural areas. Powerful education means providing the tools to make education more playful and suitable for the citizens of tomorrow\u2019s world. We want to help children change their lives, fascinate them, inspire them with what is possible, give them wings and help them build a society in which they are empowered to create a brighter future for themselves and their families.<\/p>\n<p>That is why we are inviting you to be part of this change! If you are willing to help us change<br \/>\ntheir world, partner with us.<\/p>\n<pre>\u201cA man\u2019s mind, stretched by new ideas, may never return to its original dimensions.\u201d\r\n Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.<\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; \u201cWhere, after all, do universal human rights begin?
