Bringing livelihood to 1200 poor rural youth

Thank you as always your support will bring changes in the lives of poor rural youth. 

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.

Students were put on their regular practical and theoretical classes followed by English coaching and computer classes. Pongal celebrations were held at the campus. Students from Paramedical Course were under training period placed at various hospitals while the Catering department students had taken up their on-the-job training at various hotels.

All these students have gained practical knowledge on the course pursued, opportunity to learn different culture, people, language, adaption to new environment and moreover the confidence to live independently. Surprise visits were held by their tutors to study their conduct and receive the opinion of the hotel management of students who have appeared for the training.  Positive feedbacks were received from the management with a few suggestions to be incorporated for the next batch of students.

By supporting this project you have helped us to provide a solid foundation of skill training to the poor rural youth which will result in their economic development, exposure in their related fields in years to come.

Through our programme we have been able to reach this targeted population, poor, less educated, early school drop outs especially women and girls and encourage them to progress and change their lifestyle in this society.

Besides, English Coaching class in basic reading, writing and speaking skills were taken up by Native language speaker Ms.Lora, Volunteer to help our students improve their language proficiency and basic computer classes in Microsoft word were also part and parcel of the day.

We believe that through our working together we can make a difference in the lives of people around us!

Her parents are working for daily wages.  She has an elder brother Ganeshan who had to forgo schooling because of family’s financial constraints, is now a construction labourer and a moral support to the family, a younger sister, Gokila studying Grade V. Both of them are solely dependent on their parents, whose income was quite sufficient to manage the family’s basic needs.  Born unto a poor family, full filling the basic amenities of life was a point of issue to them. However the driving vigor in educating the children has earned the entire work hours of their parents

Sangeetha,  is now pursuing her Paramedical Course. This support will help her live an independent life as well as support her family financially.

“My parents were impoverished to the point that they could not afford the books and studies that I needed.  My grades were weak in English which was the fundamental for the Course that I was enrolled to.  With the ongoing support from GlobalGiving and encouragement from the training tutor, staff and management, I was able to continue by studies.”
