Educational Fees: Because in her life her experience says NGO’s support for Educational fees but they have Rules &criteria with a higher number of percentage and so on.So what about those who stay in Slums and no one available to guide them.So Team UMEED has taken an initiative to support such children’s, give them extra coaching. Because Education is the Best Gift which can make their life worth leaving.The year 2016-2017 we have successfully supported 312 Children’s for Educational Fees, Educational kits, nd Extra Coaching.We also Run a special centre where we teach people English Speaking, Computer trainings and much more and support them with a placement at Good Place.What happens with people is they lack in Communication, Computer skills and because of which they are not able to get good job.So to make them strong and stand on their own leg we support for the trainings and make sure for the good placement.
