Educate poor children in an integrated school

Thank you!

This program is fully funded because of donors like you.

Impact

Every monthly donation helps more children like Mala go to school

Having lost her father at a very young age, 6-year-old Mala belonged to a single parent family. Her mother rolled beedis to eke a living. With a very low-income, she found it very hard to make ends meet. She did not have enough resources to provide her child with a quality education.

She then approached Amar Seva Sangam. Mala was admitted to the Siva Saraswathi Vidyalaya (SSV) run by Amar Seva Sangam. She was given free education, uniforms, study materials and personal attention.

Mala is now in Class 5. She works hard and usually stands first in class. She has a lot of dreams that she aims to achieve. Give children like Mala a chance to achieve their dreams.

Challenges faced and next steps

Post covid period we have faced a lot of problems from the students. We took online classes during pandemic, but it was not as effective as regular classes. Students were not able to reach their full potential. As per the government instructions, all students were promoted after two years of online education without regular studies. In regular classes we are facing a lot of issues in their studies. Most of the students did not know the English alphabets and Tamil letters. Teachers are teaching the letters first and then complete their syllabus accordingly. We are sorting out the students depending upon their capability and guide them further. It will take long time to overcome all of this. We are training students with special classes and improve their studies. We have only three months until our annual exams. We are working hard to reach our goal to secure good marks in our students for their final exams.

Activities and work undertaken in the last 5-6 months

The covid pandemic turned everything upside down, and it has been tough to keep up with our regular targets. This pandemic has thrown various challenges, out of which conducting online classes is one. We had new admissions for VI to IX and also for XI Standard. However, for access in XI standard, we chose students depending upon their ability as no public exams were conducted. From September 1, 2021, we have started regular classes from 9th to 12th standard, and from November 1, 2021, we have also begun regular courses from 6th to 8th standard as instructed by the Government of Tamil Nadu. All our students, parents, and teachers are thrilled to be in a classroom physically after a long period of online classes. ‘International we serve foundation’ conducted a storytelling competition about APJ. Abdulkarim. Nearly 65 students & 3 teachers participated. We proudly inform you that our Siva Saraswathi Vidyalaya Higher Secondary School is one of the top 10 best schools. Our headmistress Mrs. Parvathi received the best headmistress award, and our faculty Mr. Arumugasamy received the best teacher award. Our students U.Murugeswari-x, C.Indhuja-XII, S.Maheshwari-X, C.Anusiya-IX, and Kavitha-XII (unique child) received consolation prizes. All participants received E-Certificate for their participation. On December 16, 2021, in collaboration with the forest department, our students prepared 200 seed balls and went to the Ayikudy to throw the seed balls in various places. This event made our students understand the importance of forests and trees. This made our students feel thrilled. A competition was held by the Tamil Nadu Science Forum and Surandai Puthaga Thiruvizha to encourage students to copy 1330 Thirukkural. More than 80 students have participated and got appreciation certificates. With this program for July to December – 2021, we can cover beneficiaries from various areas around our school, namely Ayikudy, Kambili, Kilangadu, Sambavarvadakarai Villages in Tenkasi District, Tamil Nadu. Within the given period, 103 children were impacted by this program. All the beneficiaries who benefited from this program come from financially weak families. They were having trouble buying groceries, vegetables, medical kits, etc. They were working for daily wages, and it became tough for them to work daily. Even after taking so many precautions, some of the families have covid symptoms, and thankfully they are all safe now. With the support from giving India, their parents are very grateful and happy that their children are not missing their education.


Challenges faced and next steps

The education industry was one of the worst-hit by the COVID-19 pandemic, with institutions scrambling to find solutions to keep their doors open. In these times of need, online learning tools emerged as a boon. Online education has many benefits: portability, ease of access, reduced need for physical infrastructure, lowered costs, and greater flexibility. But that isn't to say that it doesn't come with its demerits. In a recent survey, 60% of the students who have recently shifted into an online – learning system thought of the experience as boring and struggled with motivating themselves to pay attention in class. Therefore, we shall explore the biggest challenges facing online education today in the following. Students complain of lacking motivation due to a lack of interpersonal touch between the students and the teacher in the online classes. The need for physical interaction between the students is also a necessity for maintaining engagement which the online learning methodology has no answers for yet. Due to pandemic situations and lockdown, the parents face several problems to preserve their economic status. So, it is tough to provide proper arrangements for their online studies. The government instructed the private schools to collect 80% of their students' fees. The give India's scholarship enhances the needy students to uplift their education. For over one year, we have faced many problems teaching online, but now we are happy that we can open our school for 9th to 12th standard from September 1st, 2021, and for 6th to 8th standard from November 1st, 2021. We are focusing on providing quality education to all the students and looking forward to identifying students who were having financial backlash and helping them pursue their education without dropping out.

The covid pandemic turned everything upside down and it has been very difficult to keep up with our regular targets. This pandemic had thrown various challenges out of which, conducting online classes is one. Due to their financial condition, some of our students were not able to attend online classes because they don’t have smartphones. We had come up with a plan to arrange 174 smartphones for students so that they won’t miss any of their classes. For this, with the help of Standard Chartered Bank, we have achieved our target.In the month of July, Tamil Nadu Science Forum and the Muthamil Education Movement together organized a Thirukkural writing contest in association with the Thirukural Development Organization of Tamilnadu. More than 100 students from our school participated in it and got appreciation certificates.Department of Environment, Government of Tamil Nadu conducted competitions such as Essay writing, elocution, and painting online at the state level on behalf of the National Green corps.

With the support from Give India, their parents are very grateful and happy that their children are not missing their education.


Challenges faced and next steps

Due to covid pandemic and all the lockdowns, it has been very difficult to conduct classes physically. In order to help children not to waste their academic year, we were conducting online classes. Initially, it has been very difficult to teach all the students online because some students are not able to focus, some students don’t have smartphones, some students have network issues, etc. Some of the parents have lost their jobs and were not able to meet daily expenses. There were times where some students had to quit their studies and go to work. We have given counseling to all the parents and also conducted a covid awareness program via online and telephone calls. Initially, it was difficult to make them all understand the pandemic and the importance of wearing a mask, sanitizing their hands frequently, and maintaining social distance. Over the time period, with regular awareness, all our children and their parents are staying safe. For the students, who are not able to attend online classes due to lack of smartphones, we have collaborated with the Standard Chartered Bank to help them by providing android phones. Now all the students are able to attend online classes. Exams were conducted through Google sheets and survey.com. For over one year, we have faced a lot of problems teaching online but now we are happy that we are able to open our school for 9th to 12th standard from September 1st, 2021. We are thinking of reopening fully by the end of this month. We are focusing on providing quality education to all the students and also looking forward to identifying students who were having financial backlash and help them in pursuing their education without dropping out.
