Going To School Fund

Their programs include:

• Children's Scrappy News Service: It is the first makeshift news service run by kids and for kids, solving India’s biggest problems with design-thinking, scrappy skills, entrepreneurial skills, interviewing stars, heroes, entrepreneurs and asking kids from across India to send in their problems to be solved. Every episode is structured around solving a community problem. It is a primetime compelling edutainment part-television series. Kid reporters in a newsroom made of junk (and once-loved things) present the problem and interview famous people to get an insight on how to solve it. The kids themselves act as anchors and field reporters.
• Digital Games: GTS, along with Google’s Global Impact Award, is creating open source, interactive mobile and desktop games that teach critical entrepreneurship skills to kids. The aim is to provide lessons in business, economics, teamwork and communications via 21 games. For instance, Maya and the Storm is one of the entrepreneurship games implemented in 4 languages, reaching 320,000+ underprivileged kids and teaching them the basics of time management. These games are available on App stores to kids worldwide.
• Be! An Entrepreneur: This program supports an innovative approach to utilizing a broad range of communication platforms to identify, support, and disseminate information about low income entrepreneurs who generate solutions to local development challenges.  Be! Movies is a series of action-adventure short movies where young entrepreneurs take on their community's biggest problems and solve them.  This teaches the kids entrepreneurial skills including identification of problems, ability to solve them, taking initiative, making a plan, working in teams, and designing and building sustainable enterprises.
• Paison Ki Paathshala: This is GTS’ radio feature that aims to educate India’s youth on financial literacy skills needed to get and create a job, start a business, and manage money.
