Empowering Education and Well-Being for Underprivileged Children at Shree Aadharbhut Vidhyalaya in Neureni, Chitwan

Overview of the Project

The Prime Social Innovation Club and Prime Cultural Club of Prime College are dedicated to creating a positive impact within our community through meaningful initiatives. As part of this commitment, we are actively working to uplift the educational experience and overall well-being of underprivileged children at Shree Aadharbhut Vidhyalaya in Neureni, Chitwan, through our flagship endeavour, Project Sarathi.

Shree Aadharbhut Vidhyalaya serves 159 students, many of whom come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, including orphans. These children face numerous hardships, including:

A lack of basic educational materials such as textbooks and notebooks.

Inadequate clothing to protect against harsh winter conditions.

Limited access to modern educational tools and technology.

Mission of the project

At the heart of Project Sarathi lies a deep commitment to bringing hope, warmth, and opportunities to children to overcome the challenges these young minds face and create an environment where they can dream and learn.

Providing Warm Winter Clothing

We believe that no child should suffer the bitter cold. By providing warm winter clothing, we ensure that these students can attend school comfortably and with dignity, freeing them from the distractions of harsh weather and allowing them to focus on their dreams.

Equipping with Essential IT Devices

In today’s world, access to technology is access to opportunity. By introducing modern IT devices, we are opening the doors to a world of knowledge, empowering these children to bridge the digital divide and step confidently into the future.

Delivering Learning Materials

Every child deserves the chance to explore, learn, and grow. With essential learning materials, we aim to fill the empty book corners and inspire young minds to reach their potential, providing them with the tools to achieve their academic goals.
