Program Overview

Our After-School Learning Centres provide safe, inclusive, and nurturing spaces for children from underserved communities to access quality education and holistic development. Currently operating in 10 villages across Palamu and Garhwa in Jharkhand and in the urban settlement of Tirusulam, Chennai, these centres are led by trained local women and supported by expert mentors and online teachers. With a strong focus on foundational learning in English and Mathematics, the centres also engage children in science, games, arts, and life skills including health, gender awareness, digital literacy, and social-emotional learning.
