January Newsletter

January newsletter gives an overview of activities we did in 2007.
These include

Adopting students for education

We also started a special initiative for adopting students for education from nearby rural areas. In the year 2007, Shiksha Sopan selected 4 students of class 6, Naresh, Eshant, Manaviya and Poonam, and undertook entire responsibility of their education up to class 12. This includes financial as well as academic assistance at all levels.

Pratibha Poshan Yojana

Shiksha Sopan selected 19 talented students in the villages at class 9 level who not only lack in financial capabilities but also in Information and Exposure. These are from the districts Kanpur, Kanpur Dehat, Unnao in UP and Buxar in Bihar. The selection was made by conducting an examination at 5 centers where more than 200 children appeared and evaluating the performance.

Children's Science Training Programme

Shiksha Sopan conducted an extended 6-week Science Training Programme where children were collected for 2 hours in the afternoons and exposed to Science experiments with their most familiar commodities.
