Diya Ghar is an NGO with a heart for the migrant community. Long before India’s labourers became a news item because of the national lockdown, we were working to give this community to give them a leg up through the power of education. Diya Ghar started in 2016 with a vision for all children, irrespective of their economic status, to have access to stimulating and nurturing pre-school education. Our mission is to set up pre-schools and daycare centers for children of migrant workers (specifically those living in blue tent settlements) in the city of Bangalore, and expand to other cities in India eventually. Until March 2020, we ran 3 Preschool and Day Care centres serving 135 children. However due to the pandemic we had to bring an all new Community Model strategy that would help us continue working with migrant children and their families even through severe lockdowns. Our focus is preschool education, nutrition, healthcare and community development. We have impacted over 500 children and over 50 children have graduated and enrolled in Primary schools in the last 5-6 years. In just about a year, we have spread across 11 communities with over 600 children who attend daily classes at our community classrooms that we started building within migrant blue tent communities starting in 2020. Additionally, all the children within these communities, student or not, receive nutrition supplements from us on a daily basis, which includes eggs, milk, high protein mix, fruits and protein bars. We are now also working strongly to get every migrant in the communities vaccinated either through our corporate partnerships or with the help of the BBMP vaccination program. We decided that #covidwontstopus from serving the migrant communities of Bangalore.
