Strategy:                                                                                                                                                                                              Annual Budget: $19,000
  • Training children through qualified tutors in Math, science, Tamil and English.
  • Improving community and parent participation.
  • Systematic tracking of a student’s progress.
  • Campaigns to prevent social issues like child marriage and child labor that hinder a child’s education.
Impact:
  • Around 650 students attend Manitham after schools.
  • In most schools in the area, the 1-5 ranks are held by Manitham students.
  • Some Manitham students have paved their way to get government jobs.
What is the impact of $1000 on this project?
Improved education for 30 children per $1000.

3 Manitham students have gone on to become tutors for the after schools and have been able to successfully educate more students in their village.
