CSS 2nd project is Free English Medium School for socially and economically underprivileged girls . The School has classes from Nursery to 10th grade. 550 students are getting free education in the School. Most of the students are 1st generation school goers in their families and their parents are uneducated. So the students heavily rely on the School for their educational needs. The School has all the necessary infrastructure and well-trained staff. So far four batches of students have passed out of the School after finishing their 10th grade.  CSS third project is Dr. Lakshmi Ganga Swayam Sakthi's project. Under this program, women in distress situations who come to CSS are provided temporary shelter, counseled and helped to cope with their problems. A few of these women have been absorbed into CSS itself as residential staff. Free training in tailoring, Fabric painting, Block printing, Hand embroidery etc. are conducted to help women in economic need to become self-sufficient.
