Lakshmi Manchu shared, “I am thrilled to curate the 9th edition of the Teach for Change Annual Fundraiser, along with my whole team, where fashion meets philanthropy. This glamorous evening not only celebrates style but also empowers us to make a tangible difference in education in Government schools. Let’s walk the runway of change together, supporting the incredible work of Teach for Change and ensuring a brighter future for the children we work with”.

She added, “We at Teach for Change have been fighting a long drawn social injustice. A child’s access to quality education depends on their social status or family’s income. Education is our fundamental right, irrespective of our backgrounds. Teach for Change will continue to provide quality education to children studying in Government schools with our flagship volunteer programs and smart classrooms. We are committed to bring about this change one school at a time, one child at a time”.

Teach for Change, a non-governmental organization, has been actively involved in transforming education through two significant programs. The Smart Classroom Initiative has successfully created which are conducive to learning environments by introducing elements like vibrant paintings, low-lying tables, smart TVs and an engaging video-based curriculum. The PEGA TFC Volunteer Program has mobilized individuals from various walks of life, including students and working professionals, who have contributed as volunteers in neighbourhood government schools. The cumulative impact of these programs is staggering, reaching 74,960 students, establishing 243 smart classrooms, and engaging 1,474 dedicated volunteers.

Lakshmi Manchu through this initiative aims to unite and enhance the accessibility of quality education to the underprivileged. Interested citizens are encouraged to volunteer and support teach for change by logging into https://www.teachforchange.in/
