Bano had stopped going to school because her mother is very unwell. Her mother wanted her to help her older sister, who also was forced to stop her education, to do household chores. The decision was taken much against their will. On the other hand, Inam, the male child of the family had stopped going to school due to lack of interest, but his mother still assumed it was necessary for him to continue his studies.\u00a0 It took many home visits by the MCF team to convince mother and to send Bano back to school, but the task was not an easy one. They also spoke to the teachers in the village school to accept Bano. They did!\u00a0 And they arranged for a scholarship for her as well. With the promise of free education,\u00a0 Bano was back home again, doing house work.\u00a0 With consistent follow up and more conversations, which included Bano\u2019s brother Inam, things then began to change and they finally agreed to send Bano to school. The next day, an MCF volunteer, Satyabala,\u00a0 took Bano to school at 8:30 am (on time) and also dropped her back at home. They all followed this plan because it meant safety for Bano with a trusted friend because of the relationship the MCF had built with the family,\u00a0 and Bano started attending school again. But Bano\u2019s mother was also very happy to learn that all this work and connections had also influenced Inam and now he was now eager to join the school again. The siblings were both admitted to 8th in their school close by.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-859","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Bano&#039;s Story - Mountain Children&#039;s Forum USA<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Bano&#039;s story: Getting our girls on board.
