After a lot of answered prayer, Ark of the Rainbow opened its doors this month, and already has 18 children enrolled! The school is located in one of the Bangalore slums. The Christian-based program is intended to provide a jump-start to formal education for kids who otherwise could not afford it. Enrolling these children in school means that their parents can both go look for jobs (and much needed income) to support their families.
We've spent the last few weeks getting the school equipped with class materials and kitchen supplies.
Over the next few months, the preschool classes will be expanded, and the school will offer Bible Study classes and a Girls Club (the equivalent of Young Life + life skills + human trafficking awareness program for teen girls).
