Sonu Sood planned to set up an International School for underprivileged children in Bihar after reading about the struggles of a 27-year-old Bihar Engineer who is helping orphans.
Sonu Sood was shocked reading about Birendra Kumar Mahato, a 27-year-old Bihar engineer, who had resigned from his full-time job to open a school for orphaned children and had even given it the actor’s name. The actor met Mahato and the 110 children at the school, which also serves as a shelter house, and was moved by his efforts to give free education and food to them.
The actor spent time with Mahato to better understand the needs of the school, from giving ration to high-quality education, raising awareness of the issue, and closing the wealth-poverty divide in educational attainment. By the end of the day, Sonu Sood had begun construction on a new structure for the school so that it could accommodate less fortunate children and guarantee that each student had access to food. “Increasing access to education is one of the best ways to combat poverty. We aim to educate children from marginalized sections of society so that they have a better chance at job opportunities. Higher education is something we are working on. The other important aspect is nutrition and overall well-being as this school is also a night shelter,” said the actor. He added: “Higher education is something we are working on. The other important aspect is nutrition and overall well-being as this school is also a night shelter,”. Right now Sood has been providing education close to ten thousand students across the country.
