Support for Rehabilitation of Children Back into schools

Due to incessant heavy rains in North Karnataka, almost all the villages of Belgaum, Bijapur, Uttara Kannada, and Dharwad are flood-hit, and most of the families have lost all their belongings, with their houses being severely damaged.

Immediate rescue and relief efforts are being taken care of by the government and the Indian army. NGOs and the general public are helping out with the basic needs of food, drinking water, clothing, and the health needs of the families in the shelter homes.

The school-going children of these flood-affected regions have lost all their study materials, books, bags, and uniforms.

Vidya Poshak is working for the empowerment of the student community of rural North Karnataka since the past 18 years. We are well connected with all the remote rural schools and know their requirements.

The Vidya Poshak team is acting to make sure that the children of all the four flood-affected districts are back to school with a happy mind by replacing all their lost items.

We will be working to provide rehabilitation to school children of 100 schools from the affected talukas of Belgaum, Raibag, Khanapur, Gokak, Hubli, Dharwad, Yellapura, Karwar, and Sirsi.

The timely interventions provided will help the school children gain a sense of belonging and will build confidence in their minds. We are aiming to impact 10,000 children from 100 schools of the flood-affected districts of Belgaum, Bijapur, Dharwad and Uttara Kannada.
