Funding As the school serves an extremely underprivileged community, Adharshila welcomes donations. Please do not hesistate to contact the school if you wish to donate money, materials such as textbooks, or your own energies. Adarshila charges a tuition fee of forty rupees (less than a dollar) a month per child. Teachers make about $30 a month. ______________________________________ Fifth Year Report This year we ran the show without any institutional funding though there was some left over from last years funding. About 75,000 rupees were raised through children’s fees. Grain worth Rs. 28,000 was given by the chilren’s parents. Rs. 42,000 were collected through sponsorships of children by friends. Arundhati Roy has given 1.5 lacs to Adharshila. We are thinking of using this amount to start our corpus fund. The children’s drama team also raised about 25,000 rupees throughout the year.
