BACKGROUND
Every child deserves to learn, no matter how rich or poor they are.
Since 2014, Purnachetana Public School (PCPS) has been serving dozens of village students and rural communities outside Mysuru. The school is run by Chetana Trust NGO, well known for rehabilitating children with mental disabilities.
Over the years PCPS has slowly invested in school buildings, labs and innovative tools to educate rural children with different socio-economic backgrounds. The goal was to teach them sustainable 21st century skills without cutting them off from our ancestral knowledge of agriculture and dairy farming.
COVID SITUATION
Prolonged Covid-19 Pandemic lockdown has shut down PCPS for over a year now and we need your help to teach online.
Whole of last year, the school personally delivering self-learning packages called “Swayam Shiksha” to all students even in the remotest villages. Teachers tried to engage through daily phone calls but it is hard to maintain student-teacher relationship without online tools.
The real problem is 48% of the students don’t have daily access to a computer, smartphone or internet connection. This shuts down the only hope of learning for them and sets them back. PCPS also needs a new internet connection and computers for their teachers to start online classes.
FUNDRAISER GOAL
Purnachetana Public School is requesting your help to:
- Give 1 computer each to 100 needy students and empower them- Give 1 computer + 1 phone to 10 teachers conducting online classes
- Provide internet, software licenses and training to students and staff
