Sakshi Librarians are trained to improve children's learning skills like concentration and reading and writing ability through interactive & fun activities like story-telling sessions, games, arts and crafts. This also inculcates a lifelong love of learning in children which helps them excel not only in school but all through their adult lives and careers.

Sakshi is one of the few select NGO's that are approved by the Government to work in their MCD (Municipal Corporation of Delhi) schools in slums. For the past twenty years, Sakshi has been providing the children at these schools with health, academic, financial and motivational support to empower them to lift themselves out of the poverty they were born into.
One of Sakshi's core education programs for these children is the Library Program under which Sakshi builds libraries in slum schools, equipped with instructive and enjoyable books and a librarian who is trained to conduct games, arts and crafts etc. The goal of the Library Program is to build the habit of reading, improve concentration and inculcate a lifelong love of learning in these children, all of which will help them walk into the bright future their parents could only dream of.
At a function in the South Zone MMTC school, the Municipal Corporation of Delhi, Education Department - South recognized Sakshi for the impact of the Library Program in improving the children's academic competence and learning abilities, with Mr. Shahnawaz Husain, BJP Spokesperson, presenting the award onstage to Mr. Khan, Sakshi Project Director.
