Funding -Parents from Corporate and School.
Training – Through school system in off time.
Earning of the beneficiaries -through the school courier.
Placement for the beneficiaries – Organised by students through the parents who are senior functionaries in govt. and corporate.
What is the key driving factor for this idea
“50% of Indian children aged
6-18 years do not go to school.”
“50% of these children land as unskilled workers without a
basic quality life.”
Our key driving factor is to make these children smile with training, education,
empowerment with capacity to earn for life.
