Over het programma

Each  and every child is provided equal opportunity to get Education,Health,Nutrition and Skill Building Services so as to develop them as the Responsible human being on this earth.

About the Program

Our proposed program will engage and provide identified children,specially slum,street and orphan children in various activities.These will include Education,Health and Hygiene education,Personality Development,so as to build and provide them an opportunity to develop themselves as the responsible citizen of the country. This will further help them to live into the main stream of society.

We believes education is at the heart of improving the children’s prospects – not just for the children, but for their parents, too. We see it as equally important to engage with their parents and community leaders in the slum area to help them understand the value of education, as a way to help the whole family’s prospects in the long term. Through building relationships with the parents over the past few years, We gained their trust and support, which is critical to ensuring that the children continue to attend school for as long as possible. The first we are in the heart of the slum, and we regularly invite parents to special events at our new schoolroom in a basement nearby.

We also put a strong focus on fun and social skills at the Shrestha school. We celebrate festivals and birthdays with the children, which gives them a lot of happiness, and each school day ends with a session of sports and games, to make sure they always leave with a smile.

Project Needs  

We want  to address the education deprivation among the underprivileged and marginalized community living in the city of Jaipur.

Children in this program come from slum area in the beginning it was not easy to bring them for education the reason is in slum area each family have five to six children and parents have not fix work there earning is not enough. Children want to go school and study but the parents want to send them on work just like begging,shoe polish,garbage collection etc. So lot of talking and field work some are ok to send children for education at our center. And now continuously children come everyday. On this project we are work since 2010.

Volunteers Role

At the project volunteers will help us in various ways such as they can teach the children English, maths and computing, in a friendly and supportive atmosphere, and also assisting in their moral development how they can behave they also do health and hygiene lessons art and craft, wall painting etc. they can prepare some educational games and sports activity for these children overall development.

Who We Are

In Jaipur alone there are about 50 thousand children on the streets. Studies and observations about street & slum children in several cities including Jaipur in India highlight the magnitude of this problem.They are mainly in the formative group of 6 to 15 years and most of them are illiterates and school dropouts.

Society for health, Education and Vocational Training for Slum,Street,and Poor Orphan Children (SHRESTHA) was established under Rajasthan Society Registration Act.1958 with the overall aim and objectives of helping and supporting children especially Slum, runaway, orphans and street children in Jaipur.

SHRESTHA is successfully implementing its various activities and programs through which children are being provided with and supported for fulfilling their Educational, Socio-Psychological Counseling, STIs, HIV/AIDS Counseling, Skill Building, Vocational Training, Rehabilitation and Referral requirements.

We work with children and their families living in an established slum area on the outskirts of Jaipur, in the desert state of Rajasthan.In this slum area, the families are from different states, including Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal. They live in houses made with mud or in less substantial tent-style homes. Families tend to be fairly large, with typically five or six children, so there’ll be an average of about eight people in each household, sharing one single room. 

People in the slum area do not have a fixed job. Instead, they’ll do garbage collection, shoe polishing, begging and lots of similar work to try to generate an income. They generally do not earn enough money to fulfil their daily needs. Often, parents are not able to provide food and clothing for their children or even medicine when children fall ill.

The children want to go to school and study like ‘normal’ kids, but their parents don’t earn enough to send them to a good school. These children have lots of talent and are eager to learn but their family situation means they’ve often no choice but to work along with their parents.

Breaking the cycle

Shrestha works to break the cycle of poverty that diminishes these children’s life chances. Without a good education, their economic prospects will be as limited as those of their parents, sentencing them and their future children to a similar life of hardship.

SHRESTHA is getting support and motivation from various concerning government departments and other agencies Our project aims at identifying underprivileged children especially from slum areas, streets & orphans and then providing them with formal as well as informal education, Health & Hygiene education, Vocational training & working for their Personality development so as to create opportunity for these children to develop themselves as responsible citizens of the country & further helping them to live into main stream society.

SHRESTHA is dedicated to helping impoverished children lead healthy, fulfilling lives and reach their full potential into adulthood – and you can help.
