Sathwik Vidya

Education & Self reliance Program for Development of Child
The illiterate population is one of the reasons of barrier against the entire development of a country. But this is unfortunate but true that the literacy rate of India is poor. Most of the poor, neglected day labors of villages are illiterate among them. The children of these families are engaged in various works due to the poverty from childhood. But there is no scope of education for them side by side of their work. As a result, there is a strong need of arrangement of part-time education with income generating work beside the formal and regular education in order to bring them under the net of education.  Moreover there is a need of creating awareness activities widely to resist child labor and drop-out from the school with this. At present Sathwik Bharath is implementing this Sathwik Vidya program.

  Objectives-
v   Bringing the deprived, dropped-out working children under the net of part-time education.
v   Awareness building to re-admit the dropped-out children from the school.

v   Providing training to the earning children.
v   Building the habit of savings among the working children.
v   Assisting the cowboys to engage in home-gardening in order to make self reliant and to meet-up the demand of nutrition. And encourage them to plantation of forest and fruit trees in order to preserve the balance of environment.

Nelson Mandela once said: “There can be no keener revelation of a society’s soul than the way in which it treats its children.” For those of us who can show we care, let us not bear the burden of mistreating ours.
