Under the Ujjwal project in Gujarat’s pipeline area, our focus has been on enhancing children’s well-being by improving infrastructure, resulting in increased student attendance and decreased dropout rates. Our interventions, such as providing sufficient restroom and drinking water facilities, have led to significant improvements.
In Viramgam, two schools now boast one boys’ toilet and four Google classrooms equipped with smart boards, enhancing learning environments. Similar upgrades have been implemented in other districts like Dev Bhumi Dwarka, Jamnagar, and Banaskantha.
At our Nand Ghars in the area, we celebrated National Girl Child Day on January 24, 2024, advocating for gender equality and raising awareness of girls’ rights. The event took place across 6 Nandghars, with over 140 girls actively participating.
The project promoted girls’ engagement in activities such as painting, slogan writing, and craft making, aiming to raise awareness about girls’ rights and the significance of education, health, and nutrition.
