About the school
Devaki Memorial is a 68 year old upper primary school founded by my grandfather, M S Menon. The school, located in Elavanchery, a small village in the Palakkad district of Kerala, comprises a little over 400 students from pre-kg to 7th grade. For the past two years, my parents have been actively involved in the upliftment of this school, its children and the village.
What is this initiative about
More than 50% of the children in this school come from low income families who find it difficult to afford education for their children. The aim of this initiative is to gather funds to buy school bags, notebooks and other essential stationery needed for an entire academic year.
