Women Empowerment

Lighting the path of knowledge

by

“Empowered Women empower others.”
This holds true for our young women educators from Katarkhadak, Khamboli and Padalgarwadi village, who with unwavering determination and a deep-rooted belief in the power of education, have become beacons of knowledge, imparting essential concepts to eager young minds. We decided to support this initiative by offering them teaching aids like the Board,  Box of Chalks and Duster. While these women are a catalyst of change for their communities they also bring in some financial freedom for themselves.

Bridging the knowledge gap!

Offering of RSVK:-

Our rural team arranged for the Chalk boards to make imparting education and learning more meaningful.

Motherhood & Fearless Fatherhood/Yes Parenting

An ISP (Infant Siddha Program) session was conducted for rural parents. The sessions were a prelude to happy parenting days. Aimed at parents of children from 0-7 yrs., the program aids in providing the child conducive environment for all round growth.

 

 

One of the participants, Mrs. Seema Kamble, a ZP school teacher,  practiced one of the applications of ISP on her students  and reported,” Earlier the  students were disinterested in learning new English words. But with flash cards as a ‘Fluent forever’ technique I learnt in the ISP session, I have noticed that the student engagement has gone up and they are a happy bunch of motivated learners now.”
