While the Right to Education Act provides for unrestricted school admissions of children who are from orphanages, slums or streets and ensures that a child from any background is not rejected from schools due to financial constraints the supplementary needs of these children such as books, uniforms and other school supplies are often neglected. Providing for all their necessities becomes difficult for their parents.
Naturally, hair care becomes the last priority for these families although it is a very important part of personal hygiene.
You can help provide a hair cut to a child to help in personal hygiene. This will also build a child‘s confidence and encourage him to attend school in his formative years.
