Basic education

Basic education refers to the whole range of educational activities taking place in various settings (formal and non formal), that aim to meet basic learning needs.

What does Veda do?— Built bridging schools in every slum to ensure that children who are deprived of any educational opportunity – atleast acquire basic literacy skills. In some slums, the schools we built sometimes provide shelter to people in times of emergency.

Since 2006

• Total of 12 schools• 1 school in 1 slum • on average 90-

100children/school

so total of nearly 1200 children are getting education from our bridging schools

Medical care

• Veda+RRDF renders its services round the clock among the slum dwellers through health awareness programmes, medical cmo’s and surveys.RRDF supports people suffering with unusual conditions:

•Heart surgeries •Reconstructive surgeries •Polio surgeries•Hysterectomies.

Immunization programme

Dental camp

Antenatal care : Refers to the regular medical and nursing care recommended for pregnant women.

It’s a type of preventative care with the goal of providing regular check-ups that allow doctors to treat problems throughout the course of the pregnancy thereby promoting healthy lifestyles that benefit both mother and child.

Immunization is an important part in this programme

Income generation

• Poverty is characterized by a lack of income/purchasing power attributable to lack of productive employment.

• NGO’s play the role of facilitators in encouraging participatory approaches in empowering the poor by income generating projects.

• This is with an objective of improving their economic status.

Home for homeless

Housing:

• Providing shelter to the homeless• Veda has taken up construction of

houses to the slum dwellers under the Housing scheme in collaboration with the Government of Andhra Pradesh.

• RRDF generously came forward to support this Blessed venture

VTC is proposed for under privileged children to give a ray of hope to get trained in various job oriented technical and non technical trades in our VTC so to stabilize their lives for a better future.

Such kind of children will be getting education in our VTC

“When the world says give up Hope w h i s p e r s. . . . . . . .

Try it one more time”
