A project of Reaching Hand called 'Namma shale', which means My School in Kannada, aims to empower and digitalize education in government schools that are in rural areas. Underprivileged students are provided with inclusive & holistic education. Promoting STEM Education, providing Computer Labs & Digital Panels. Additionally providing water bottles, bags & books are some of the ways we empower underprivileged students.
Reaching Hand collaborates with over 50 rural government schools, particularly those near slums and villages. These remote areas are home to more than 200 underprivileged children who lack access to quality education. Poor infrastructure, inadequate sanitation, and a shortage of qualified teachers contribute to high dropout rates and increased absenteeism. Additionally, poverty prevents many students from continuing their studies.
Reaching Hand has been working with government schools and the community so that underprivileged students can be in par with other schools in the vicinity. Some of the problems we will be solving are : -1. Reduce school dropouts. 2. Students will have access to basic necessities like school bags, books, water bottles & stationery. 3. By providing minor infrastructure students can have a good learning environment. 4. Help plan and conduct curricular activities for students' holistic development.
Over the past few years, we have observed that children have improved their performance at school by almost 100% in attendance and in academic performance. There has been a significant change in school dropouts. Now government school students have started to use 21st century technologies. By digitizing schools' students now have access to a better education. Also, Students have benefitted through Reaching Hand's Scholarship to continue their studies & pursue their dreams.
