DISHA – Direction Through Education
Keeping Children in School. Creating a Direction for Their Future.
DISHA – Direction Through Education exists to help children continue their educational journey and stay connected to the opportunities that education can create.
Our Belief
Every Child Deserves a Chance to Keep Going. We believe education should not stop because a child or family cannot afford to continue. DISHA works towards creating the support children need to remain in school, continue learning, and move towards a future with greater opportunities. Because getting a child into school is only the beginning. The real work is helping them stay.
What DISHA Does
- Supporting Children Through School
- BOOKS & LEARNING MATERIALS
- CONTINUED EDUCATIONAL SUPPORT
- A CLASSROOM WORTH WALKING TO

From School to a Bigger Future
Through School. Into College.
DISHA is part of a larger commitment at The Young Leaders.
Our work does not stop at keeping a child in school.
For children who can go further, we aim to help identify the right college, support the cost of the seat, and stay alongside them until they graduate and begin earning.
Because education should not end at the school gate.
Our Approach

Understand the children and families who need support to continue their education.

Help address the barriers that can prevent children from staying in school.
TRACK
Stay connected to attendance, progress and educational outcomes.
CONTINUE
Support children beyond immediate needs and towards the next stage of their education.
Why DISHA Matters
Every Month of Delay Matters.
A child who leaves school may not always find their way back.
That is why we believe support needs to reach children before a temporary challenge becomes a permanent interruption.
DISHA is about giving children the support, continuity and direction they need to keep moving forward.
One child at a time.
One school at a time.
One future at a time.
