Project
Khushi’s after-school program currently cares for a group of
100 impoverished children that attend the local government
school.
Children attending government schools usually come from
impoverished backgrounds and due to their lack of resources
they often suffer from malnutrition, medical problems and a
lack of education.
As the classes are extremely full there is not enough space
for individual attention, which results in a high drop out
rate.
An important part of the Khushi project is focused on formal
education, teaching Hindi, English, Mathematics and other
Academic Skills.
Creativity and imagination are highly encouraged. The
children sing, dance, act, draw, paint, read stories, make
art and play sports.
Vocational trainings are given in the form of sewing lessons
(children learn to make their own clothes), candle making
and more.
We also make school trips in the form of picnic, a visit to a
deer park, play and swim-garden or an afternoon playing on
the beach next to the Ganga.
