Journey towards Sustainable Development

By Raju Joseph | Project Leader

Thanks to the generous people who believe our project is progressing positively and for helping out our youth in grading themselves as skilled trainees.

This project has provided excellent educational opportunities to the growing youth for holistic growth and development, which will put them on the path toward breaking the pervasive cycles of poverty and also have bright future in their career.

Once again we thank Global Giving for the incredible support. To work it out the task among rural youth with even more aspects effectively.

Hopefully, trusting your support, for the upcoming days....

True Story :

Kubenthiran’s father has bedridden the family for a year. Since that period onwards his mother took care of their family. She earned daily wages as an unskilled labour. As though in the hardship, she tried her best to support his son education along with his father’s medical treatment. Day by day, the circumstances seem to be worsening. On that particular situation, SPPD team advice, which on the contrary diverted his interest towards pursuing a skill, and the opportunities that are available just at his reach.

“I am thankful to the people supporting this programme, and the opportunity it has given me for training. In a couple of months, I will be a certified trainee, with which I can seek my career in prestigious hotels. Wherever I am in life I will remember the education I have obtained from this training here – I will hold onto it.”

We are grateful to all our donors who have accompanied us in this journey by contributing their hard-earned money in supporting these youth to acquire skills.

Significant academic journey for the rural youth..

By Raju Joseph | Project Leader

Your contribution to our project through Global Giving has a huge impact on the educational support for the rural children of our locality at large. We see this as a new beginning and believe more progress is possible which upshots a future full of promise and hope.

We take this wonderful opportunity to sincerely thank you for your continued support in this project (Educating for 100 poor rural children in India). Your kindness and generosity has enabled to reach out to the students who are in need of our help.

Through our programme we have been able to reach this targeted population, poor, less educated, early school drop outs to progress and change their standard of living in this society.

For the academic year 110 youth are been enrolled to hospitality courses. The funds raised so far through the Global Giving platform have helped us provide students with free lunch, travelling allowance and their required educational material.

True story

Manivasagam’s father passed away when he was three years old. Her mother is working as a labour for a daily wages. His sister is in grade 9. His mother is the breadwinner of the family. Due to financial short comes; Manivasagam was demanded for early employment to support the family. In spite of their hardships his mother was interested in educating her kids.

“I was very interested in pursuing Hospitality Course but the only drawback was the distance from my residence to the institution which I felt will be an added burden to my parent. The orientation given by SPPD team, “Earn while you study” had drawn my interest to this institution, and now I’m pursuing Hospitality Course.

I’m thankful to the donors for their support. The free lunch, travelling allowance and educational material support offered has considerably lessened a part of the educational expenses to be met out by me,” says Manivasagam.

The Way leads ahead for bright future....

By D.Sherin Roopavthi | Documenter

The students have returned back from their training, the wonderful exposure makes them to feel very useful and important and through these experiences they could get placements in their star hotels. Enthusiastically prepared and seated for examinations and is going on......

The students, who are getting education through us, are the youth stopped their education due to the poverty stricken condition of their family and unawareness of uneducated, alcoholic addicted parents. Vision of SPPD is to help those poor students by giving training in skill oriented work and educated by breaking all the obstacles such as mid day Meal, Travelling expenses, Uniforms, inner wears, Note books, Books and other study materials.

SPPD made it happen by the generous support of GlobalGiving. Many thanks for the generous donors.

Beneficiary name: Vinoth

Resurrected Path full of joy

Mr.Vinoth family includes himself, his parents, and a brother Jeyaraman. His father is a mason and his mother is a milk vendor to various houses in that village. His brother, who was average in studies, under took a part time job in road side hotel due to his poverty, though not professionally trained, at quite an early age and now owns a small road side hotel.

Testimony from Vinoth

“After my schooling, I was totally confused that what course I shall pursue. On that period, SPPD team has given knowledge for the rural youth who doesn’t have much exposure about the education, to select which course will be suitable to get rid of poverty and it helps me to choose the Hospitality Course. My aim in life is to work on luxury cruise. Being formally trained at a Caterer I believe it will help me achieve my goal. I am thankful to all those who are supporting this programme, and the opportunity they have given me for pursuing a skill.”

As a part of their regular curriculum, he was also sent for his internship programme at Hotel Thaai Residency Coimbatore, which had served as a learning platform to help him improve his cooking skills.

From our side we are continuing to support poor, less educated and out of school youth who are victims of many unfortunate circumstances by offering them an opportunity in skill training in the field of hospitality to enable them become self-reliant.

The passport to success is vocational skill and technical training capability. Vocational training programs in rural areas appear most successful in terms of enhancing employability and contributing to the human development.
