Support 'AaKanKsha' in promoting Digital Education in Rural India
'Digital Aasha' is the project of AaKanKsha VFABS, an NGO striving to promote quality education for the less privileged kids of India, under which around 600+ kids of Rural India will be provided with functional digital literacy.
These 600+ kids are from the government run schools which lack the basic facilities to help those kids realize their dreams of availing access to the digital education.
Digital Aasha is an unique project which aims at digital empowerment of the students as well as teachers with functional digital literacy. Under this project students will be provided with the digital education with the state of the art functional digital lab as well as digital content that would be tuned according to the academic syllabus.

In the later phases, this project aims to fight the teacher shortage in the rural government run schools by connecting the urban based volunteers to those schools via internet tools like skype.
1. Getting the minor repairs to the computers.
2. Buying new computers where there is shortage of PCs.
3. Restoring the power connection to schools as well as provide power backup
4. Preparing/Collecting the digital content in vernacular medium for the benefit of the school students.
5. Appointing the full time/part time Computer Tutor to train the students as well as the teachers on the functional digital literacy.
6. In the later phases, to connect urban volunteers with the school students via Skype and other internet tools.
7. Providing the fully equipped schools with digital tools like LED TV and Projector for the fuller utilization of the lab and digital content.
It is expected that it may cost around Rs.1Lakh to Rs.1.25Lakhs per school for two complete academic years.

Summer Camp - 2018
-------------------------------
The concept of summer camp has been urban centric for a very long period. Lack of public spaces and busy dual working families led to mushrooming of organizations running summer camps based on certain amount of fee per student.
Off late, some charity organizations started running free summer camps with the support of some media houses.
Whatever be the way, they have been helpful for students to involve in extra academic activities in the summer. They are helping students come together and bring our their extra hidden talents.
Trained teachers in art, calligraphy, crafts, music, dance etc are helping urban kids hone their talents and keeping these urban based students a step ahead.
This has been a privilege that many rural students could not afford. They have been spending their summer vacation in their own ways like swimming in ponds, Wells, visiting relatives etc in olden days. But now a days it's the mobile gadgets and TV that has occupied the time of the rural students in their summer holidays. Extreme summers, dried up wells and distress migration of rural communities are making the students loose an opportunity to effectively use their summer vacation.
So, for the second time in a row, AaKanKsha is conducting a summer camp in our project village THIMMANAYUNIPETA, KOLIMIGUNDLA MANDAL, KURNOOL DISTRICT.
Last year, we have experimented with a computer course for around twenty students.
This year, along with our V25 Learning center students, we have been running a summer camp where students are being shown or being encouraged to try their hands on science experiments that their academic courses entails. Schools are lacking labs and so experiments are least encouraged. So, we thought of trying them at our learning center.
Apart from science experiments, we are teaching them art and crafts based on YouTube videos.
I think, this is the first time that students here are doing experiments and making some crafts.
They are not afraid of failure in the experiment, but curious to learn by experimentation.




They are curious to learn new things from YouTube and make the crafts on their own hands.
Thanks to our Project Digital AaSha, which helped us deploy some digital tools in our rural school to learn new things.
Thanks to our Project V25, which brought some young inquisitive minds to a place and build a community of change makers.
Thanks to all our donors and supporters with out whose support this may not be possible.
Their schools reopen in second week of June and our summer camp my end by the end of this month.
We plan to take our students on an entertainment trip in the first week of June if everything goes fine.

I would like to update you that we are conducting Launch Trials of Project Digital AaSha in one more government school - ZPHS, Chintalayapalle Village, Kurnool district.



This would be our second school under this project. This particular school is filled with 120+ students whose parents are mainly daily wage earners.
Digital AaSha will help these rural students access to digital tools to enhance their learning efforts. This project will help us better utilize the existing government resources with minimum possible financial and physical efforts. This project also helps us in utilizing the digital projector in a better way than ever. Digital Projector was contributed by the local villager. Project Digital AaSha would become the final step to make this school completely smart augmenting the efforts of the teachers to improve the skills and learning outcomes of the students of a very remote village in Kurnool district.
Your contribution will surely bring a positive change in the learning outcomes of the students of this school.
Thanks for your contribution and patience. We hope to fulfill every promise we made while launching this project.
