📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

RUCHI along with a Government School

💼 What the programme involves

Volunteers will interact and teach children in the age group 6-11. The schools have about 15 children and managed by 2 teachers. Because of poor teaching methods and birth of private schools the parents have shifted their children to expensive private schools. The building of the school needs renovation and facelift. Therefore, the volunteers will white wash or paint the walls of school and do some wall writing. They will introduce creativity in education and learning techniques besides improving pronunciation of English words and bring back faith of parents in Govt. schools.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Volunteers will live in the RUCHI campus. All basic amenities will be available with library facilities. English WC will be available. Vegetarian food will be served. A cook will be there but volunteers are expected to help him cook and maintain cleanliness in dining area. Sleeping bag is required.
