Non Formal Education
Since July
2,2007 we are successfully running a
"Shiksha Kendra"
in the heart of the slums behind Hauz Khas Village, New Delhi. We
selected this area since no other organization is working here and
despite a government primary school nearby some of the parents are
unable to send their children.
Our aim is to provide non formal education, free of cost, to
children and adults, especially girls and women, who have not had
the opportunity to attend any school and are absolutely
illiterate.
Later we also plan to start a vocational training centre for women
so that they utilize their spare time usefully and also add to the
home income.
We would be grateful to receive donations, either monetary or
in kind, from people who share our enthusiasm to do something, for
the underprivileged and needy.
Children's Day
On Children's
Day,14th Nov 2008,we took about 50 slum children for an outing to
"Adventure Island. "Rohini, New Delhi, here the kids enjoyed
themselves very much.
Medical Camp
A medical
camp was held in the slums at Hauz Khas on Jan 3,2009 where a lady
doctor carried out basic medical check up of women and children.
Youth Counseling & Leadership Program
On March
8,2009,a Youth Counseling and Leadership Program was conducted
where we had distinguished speakers who gave career guidance and
leadership training to the youth between the ages of 18 years to
25 years.
