Support Free Education for Kids in the Himalayan Villages

Samoon Adarsh Vidhyalaya is a school located in Osla, a remote village in Uttarkashi, Uttarakhand. The school provides free, quality education to 200 children from Osla and neighboring villages. It was established to address the severe lack of educational access in the region, where infrastructure such as roads, electricity, and healthcare are nearly absent. The proposal seeks funding to cover the operational costs to ensure continued educational opportunities for the children and to uplift the community by breaking the cycle of poverty through education.

To secure long-term funding for Samoon Adarsh Vidhyalaya and ensure continuous quality education for 200 children in the remote village of Osla, Uttarakashi, thereby reducing educational disparity and empowering the community.

• 200 students directly
• 1,500 community members indirectly

Osla is an underdeveloped village in Uttarkashi with no proper roads, electricity, or healthcare. Children walk up to 16 kilometers daily to attend school, posing safety risks, especially for younger children and girls. The lack of educational infrastructure perpetuates poverty, forcing families into subsistence farming. This project aims to address this issue by ensuring access to education for the children of Osla.

Samoon Adarsh Vidhyalaya was established to fill the educational gap in the region. By providing free education, the school hopes to break the cycle of poverty and empower the community. The proposal aims to cover essential operational costs to continue providing these educational services.

To ensure long-term sustainability, Samoon Foundation seeks partnerships with government entities, CSR initiatives, and private donors. These collaborations will help maintain school operations and continue providing free education.

The school’s progress is monitored by Samoon Foundation staff, in collaboration with the Osla Village School Development Committees and community representatives. Regular reports are generated, and meetings with the executive body and parents ensure transparent evaluation of the project’s success.
