Give time, Help girls in India to speak English With OneProsper Read & Rise.
A 10 week prosocial program connecting high school girls in the United States with girls in India for weekly conversation and reading practice.
Read and Rise is a sister organization to OneProsper International.
Why conversation matters?
Many students learn English in school — but confidence grows through regular conversation.
Conversation practice is limited
Students often don’t get enough speaking time to build comfort and fluency.
Confidence affects opportunity
Speaking confidently can unlock participation, leadership, and future pathways.
Mentorship is powerful
A consistent peer relationship helps students stay motivated and supported.
