Cause Area

Programs

  • Anganwadi construction

    The anganwadi in Kethenahalli, currently housed in a travelers' dormitory, lacked essential facilities such as a dedicated kitchen, separate play area, adequate ventilation, and storage space. The newly constructed anganwadi, situated overlooking the picturesque arali katte with three trees, provides an improved environment. Windows facing the road facilitate interaction between the village and the anganwadi, while the women's room offers privacy for mothers and expectant mothers. We anticipate exciting interactions between the children and the anganwadi in this new setting.
