Welcome to the official site of MAD (Make a Difference) Dilli

What would a child who is not privileged like us be going through day in and day out?
What it is like to live without education?
The viciousness it puts you through.....




NO WAY OUT

It wakes me up in the morning,
Puts me to the daily grind

I brace myself for monotony 
And leave the questions behind.

It tells me to run faster, 
faster than the rest
Yet I remain a mediocre
and pass petty tests.

I come home at night 
strained and drained

I lie down on my bed
deluding myself into peace
And then I find it lurking at the headrest.

It waits patiently till I go to sleep...

The clock strikes 6:30 and,
It is ready before I am.

Beginning another cycle of monotony

It slaps me across the face.
It is, the rat race.


If the poem rings a cord in you then you're surely in the right place. We are MAD Dilli. We believe that a right to basic English education is for all irrespective of which caste or class they come from. In the modern world where we all live in our bubble , we forget that there are millions like us who are deprived of necessities like education. They spend their childhood in ignorance and lose out on numerous opportunities that could have come their way had they gone to school. We believe that English is a powerful tool in our times. It gives us the confidence to represent ourselves as global citizens. The utility of the language is widespread and therefore it should be made available to everyone so that it can be used as an added advantage. 

MAD Dilli is an extension of MAD which is an organization that began in Kochi. MAD proved its metal to the world after having won the STAPLES YOUTH ENTREPRENEUR competition. We in Delhi felt that MAD's presence could be extended to the North and help children learn.
