A community built the walls.
Now they need help with the roof.
In the ancient city of Bundi — a jewel of Rajasthan tucked among forested hills — the Bajranglok Education Foundation has been quietly doing something extraordinary. Brick by brick, with local labour and community donations, they raised the walls of a proper school building.
Then the money ran out.
“The children come every morning. They sit in the bamboo shack and they learn. But when it rains, we stop. When it is 45 degrees in summer, we stop. We need a roof.”
Today, those 47 children — aged 6 to 14 — continue their lessons in a temporary bamboo structure beside the half-finished school. It offers little shelter from Rajasthan’s brutal summer heat, and almost none from the monsoon rains that arrive each year.
The walls are already built. The foundation is solid. All that remains is a permanent roof — and one generous community of donors to make it happen.
