Dell Corporation has been actively supporting the four government schools in Domlur, Bengaluru where Sikshana Foundation is present with volunteer participation and conducting events to motivate the students. In the last quarter, Dell conducted a Talents Day program in its city campus on 28th November in which students from the government schools in Domlur participated. Sikshana selected 15 students for the program—10 for the drawing competition and 5 for the cultural programs.
The 10 students actively took part in the drawing competition by using their imagination and drawing different themes. A set of 5 students joined the Dell employees and exhibited their talent through a small dance program. These students were from the Tamil and Kannada medium government schools in Jogupalya.
Yet another event was the celebration of the birthday of senior management member of Dell R Jagdish in the Appareddypalya government school on 5th December. He sponsored lunch for 90 students of the school by contributing Rs 100 per student. The luncheon arrangements were made by the Sikshana mentors in co-ordination with the school authorities.
Besides, Dell volunteers have been visiting these schools regularly to interact with the students. Every week volunteers from Dell visit the schools and teach children simple mathematics, share interesting videos, guide students on the usage of computers and the Internet for improving their academics, motivate them with inspiring stories and anecdotes, etc.
