Education is the primary growth engine in any individual’s life. Education can help him achieve his true potential and self-sustain throughout his life. However, suitable education facilities are still scarce at the grass root level in India. To fulfil this gap several enthusiastic individuals have come together to form e-Vidya, a platform to connect aspiring rural students with high quality academic faculties and impart quality education.
All round Development of rural students through e-learning centres in rural WB.
To provide affordable e-learning opportunities for rural students belonging to economically backward classes and help them realise their full potential. This will be achieved through a combination of e-classes for academic subjects, Co-curricular hobbies and Personality
Development.
Covid-19 caused a severe disruption in education of students. Though schools moved to an e-classes model, rural students especially from economically weaker background were adversely affected as they lack resources for online education. e-Vidya initiative was conceptualized to fill this void by providing online education. Due to tremendous response received from students and volunteers this initiative was converted into a long term project.
Vanvasi Kalyan Ashram is world’s largest voluntary organisation working for overall welfare & upliftment of vanvasis since 1954. It is working for their development through its 20,000+ projects situated in remote vanvasi villages & run by a team of full-time volunteers who have dedicated their entire life for this cause. These projects are broadly classified into (i) Education (ii) HealthCare (iii) Economic Development (iv) Sports and (v) Cultural Development.
Under the umbrella of Education, VKA is running hostels where bright but needy vanvasi students live free of cost and study in nearby government schools. These vanvasi children are handpicked by VKA’s full-time volunteers and teachers of its various primary education centres in remote rural villages and then brought to the hostels when they are eligible for class 5. Quite often they are the first generation in their family to receive formal education. Each hostel accommodates around 35 vanvasi students.
