Our journey of starting as an EARLY LEARNING CENTER in 2014 – in a two-room structure to 5 floors of a SPECIAL SCHOOL today that has classrooms and activity spaces buzzing with over 120 children and young adults and their families who cherish this as their second home
and the OUTREACH SUPPORT EMPOWERMENT PROGRAM that supports 3000 families with virtual resources – the journey has been made possible by the steadfast support of our support partners – a community of driven individuals and organizations that share our vision.
Join us by supporting our initiatives and become a part of the CHANGE
A STUDENT SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM
A diagnosis brings unprecedented despair and hopelessness for a specially abled child’s family – even before they can accept the gravity of the assessment – they are overwhelmed with the costs of the consultations, therapies and interventions. The long waiting hours further leads to loss of salary / income. This burden can be very challenging for an economically disadvantaged family or a single parent – enough to completely deprive a child from any solution.
However, If a child is diagnosed timely and given the needed intervention support their is so much we can do to manage his/her challenges and develop skills for independence and holistic growth – TIMELY INTERVENTION CAN TRANSFORM A NEURODIVERSE CHILD’S LIFE
SALIENT FEATURES OF OUR PROGRAM:
- We have a robust scholarship program where candidates are screened through a structure that evaluates the parents income and ascertains the child’s needs .
- These scholarships are then matched with sponsorship offers extended by our support partners
- STUDENT SPONSORSHIPS are taken up to cover the annual fees partially (starting from Rs. 1000 monthly) or wholly (Rs.13310 monthly) and can be paid monthly, quarterly or annually.
- Some sponsors also contribute a lump sum amount to be used as needed.
- Sponsorships are given not only for assessment or diagnosis but also vocational training.
- Sponsors can identify a candidate for their support when we share profiles or they can contribute to the program as a whole
- Each sponsor is given a detailed quarterly – EDUCATION PLAN – IEP to share the progress of the candidate, in addition to the monthly newsletters and annual reports. We also share pictures or videos of achievements and special moments.
- Sponsorships are renewed annually only after an intensive assessment and meetings.
