YMO Trust is dedicated to preventing child labour, advancing education and work skills for the benefit of all. We assist in the provision of education facilities in the interest of social welfare with the objective of improving the student’s and their family’s condition of life for generations to come. UNICEF and local knowledge dictates that the problem is vast across the developing world.
Children were not getting an education and dropping out of school because they couldn’t afford the government provided school fees amongst many other things. YMO Trust provides the funding for this schooling and additional booster classes with talented and inspirational teachers. It also provides school provisions like textbooks and stationery so that the children can thrive in their academic pursuit.
Since inception in 2014, the Trust has successfully set up two academies in Sylhet district of Bangladesh, the first at Jaganathpur and the second at Galopganj. There are approximately 75 children currently attending them for booster classes. Our academies provide classes in English, Maths and Bengali and we also provide our students with access to computers, something these children would not have the means to access otherwise.
In 2019, 75 students are attending booster classes. We have capacity to teach and support a maximum of 130 students through our academies.
Children ages attending the booster classes range from 11-16 years.
