Sponsorship Disclaimer
Educate To Save connects donors with deserving students studying in institutions run by The Kalgidhar Society.
Students featured on this platform may be enrolled in:
1. Akal Academy Sponsorship (Day Scholars)
These students study in Akal Academies, a network of over 130 CBSE-affiliated, English-medium schools serving rural communities across Northern India. Sponsorship helps remove financial barriers that may otherwise prevent a child from continuing their education.
Key points:
- Each student profile represents a genuine financial need identified through our internal assessment process.
- Sponsorship contributions support the student's education and related academic needs.
- Depending on the sponsorship option selected, a student may receive support from one or more donors until the required educational assistance is fully funded.
- Once a student's sponsorship requirement has been fulfilled, the profile may be removed from public listing and replaced with another deserving student.
2. Residential Student Sponsorship
Some students live and study at the Baru Sahib campus because of exceptional personal, social, or geographical circumstances. These may include children from remote areas, orphaned or single-parent families, or those requiring a safe residential learning environment.
Residential sponsorship helps support:
- Education
- Boarding and lodging
- School uniforms and essential personal items
- Learning resources
- Sports and extracurricular activities
- Pastoral care and student wellbeing
Key points:
- Residential education involves a higher cost than day schooling due to full-time care and accommodation.
- A residential student's sponsorship may be supported by one donor or shared among multiple donors until the required annual support is met.
- Once fully funded, the student's profile may no longer appear as available for sponsorship.
General Disclaimer
- Sponsorship contributions are administered by The Kalgidhar Society and are used exclusively for educational purposes in accordance with the organisation's policies.
- While sponsors are associated with a specific student wherever possible, contributions support the student's educational journey within the broader educational ecosystem required for their success.
- If a sponsored student graduates, transfers, withdraws, or is otherwise unable to continue, The Kalgidhar Society may reassign the sponsorship to another deserving student with similar educational needs, ensuring the donor's support continues to create meaningful impact.
- Student photographs, stories, and profiles are published with appropriate permissions and are intended solely for the purpose of facilitating educational sponsorship. They may not be reproduced or used without prior written consent.
