The Pratham Education Foundation has appointed actor Anupam Kher as their goodwill ambassador.
“It is a pleasure to welcome Anupam Kher as Pratham Goodwill Ambassador," said Madhav Chavan, CEO Pratham Education Foundation.
Anupam will also be hosting Pratham's informative and educational TV programme called ‘Angrezi OK Please’.
"I have always been drawn to the cause of children's education which is why I have founded a School of Life Programme. I am certain a lot of synergy will be unleashed in being appointed Goodwill Ambassador for Pratham and in leveraging my media image. By becoming Pratham's public face, I hope to augment in its fund raising, capacity enhancement and other initiatives dedicated to the cause of children's education," said Anupam Kher.
As the goodwill ambassador, Anupam will undertake a trip to the USA later this year to meet with and encourage supporters of the organization in association with Pratham's USA chapter.
