Project Flashlights

🌟 स्कूल या पाठशालाएँ🏫, केवल पत्थरों या ईंटों से बनी इमारतें नहीं होतीं, बल्कि ये वह स्थान हैं जहाँ बच्चे पढ़ते हैं, सीखते हैं और जीवन की राह में आगे बढ़ने की प्रेरणा पाते हैं। 🎒📚🎓
इसलिए इन जगहों का जीवंत रहना उतना ही आवश्यक है ताकि शिक्षा से वंचित बच्चे भी इनमें रूचि लेकर शिक्षा के द्वार पर दस्तक दे, और इसी बहाने हम बच्चों में बुनियादी साक्षरता के विकास में भागीदार बन सकें, उनकी नींव को और मजबूती से भर सकें।

Project Flashlights🌈, इस गणतंत्र दिवस (26 जनवरी) पर एक ऐसी ही पहल कर रहा है - PROJECT SUNSHINE✨ के रूप में, जिसका लक्ष्य है कम आय वाले विद्यालयों को बेहतर, सुंदर और सीखने योग्य वातावरण में परिवर्तित करना। 😇 इसी उद्देश्य के साथ हम आप सभी को इस उत्थान में आमंत्रित करते हैं🙏🏻😊

तो आइए मिलकर इन बच्चों की शिक्षा के मार्ग को प्रकाशित करें....🤩 आइए इन कक्षाओं को रंगों से भरकर और शानदार बनाएं.....😍 🙌😊

उद्घाटन समारोह:
26 जनवरी
सुबह 11 बजे से
स्थान: शिशु गुआन मंदिर, जबलपुर
संपर्क व्यक्ति: रितिका - +91 744-0274929

“Schools are not merely concrete buildings made of rocks and bricks; they are places to innovate, learn, and create. 🏫✨ First project of 2024, Project Sunshine is coming up soon.

Though school buildings are intended for children and designed with them in mind, they often fail to relate to them in a holistic manner. Each component of the school is conceived in isolation, with little consideration for the comprehensive experience that the child will ultimately undergo. This work aims to transform building components into active facilitators throughout the teaching-learning process, which is the primary function of schools for both children and teachers, the primary users.

Congratulations India

"I am truly grateful for the transformative journey I've had with Project Flashlights. Transitioning from a fellow to an executive head, this experience has been instrumental in nurturing my leadership skills. The invaluable lessons and challenges I faced through Project Flashlights illuminated my path, boosting my self-confidence and nurturing a profound sense of accomplishment within me.

This journey also served as a catalyst for my decision to apply for the Teach for India fellowship. Witnessing the impact we could create through collective efforts in Project Flashlights inspired me to step up and contribute on a larger scale. As my awareness of societal issues deepened, so did my determination to drive meaningful change.

I extend my heartfelt gratitude to Project Flashlights for their unwavering support, love, and guidance throughout this remarkable journey. 🌸"

Alone we are strong together we are stronger. Lets keep this rolling fam.

New on-field location:
Gram Panchayat: Surtalai
(प्रधान जी से भी बात हो गई है।)

We aim to work with the nut community in the area. Nut community is a nomadic tribe settled on the outskirts of the city. Most of the people are involved in begging, and the males work as road construction laborers. We plan to establish a learning center in the area and focus on improving the conditions of the children, who are mostly involved in begging.

"Charity is good, but offering them opportunities is far more better.”

As a social organisation, people often reach out to us, willing to offer meals, food, cookies to kids on some special occasions.
However, it's challenging to make them realize that directing their support towards sponsoring their education or computer class fees or would create more meaningful opportunities.

Hope more people realise this. ✨
