Breaking the vicious cycle of poverty through education and empowerment.
Adverse economic conditions and ignorance about available opportunities create a vicious cycle of hardship. The good news is that this cycle can be broken — by education.
Lack of education, medical help & inadequate nutrition
Compulsion for child labour, falling into debt traps
Alienation of remaining assets and resources
Further aggravation of economic condition
An environment that sustains education must also be supportive in creating income-generating processes for the family unit, weaning children away from labour and encouraging them towards learning — while parents develop a system of support.
Young bright students from financially challenged backgrounds should be mentored during formative years of their schooling and supported financially through Education Assistance while they join professional courses.
Our intention is to develop an ecosystem where such students claim their rightful place in society and reach out to others placed in similar situations.
Trust Suvas works through four interconnected streams, each designed to create lasting, self-sustaining change.
Funding the higher education of selected students pursuing professional and vocational courses from government institutes after competitive examination.
Educating out-of-school children and dropouts through virtual classrooms and formal open schooling channels like NIOS.
Creating self-reliance groups of mothers — enabling economic independence in the family unit so children are freed to pursue education.
Setting up economic activities for women artisans and innovators from urban/rural poor and tribal families towards sustainable growth.
For children from the target group, our approach follows a four-step pathway — from identification to mainstreaming into formal education.
Selection and grouping of children on the basis of mental abilities and existing status of learning.
Mentoring and guiding these groups relying on the relevant national curriculum to facilitate eventual mainstreaming.
Managing their eventual admission in formal schools and supporting them during the transition to mainstream education.
Funding the higher education of brilliant students who are selected for professional and vocational courses.
Whether you are an educator, a professional, or simply someone who believes every child deserves a chance — there is a place for you in Trust Suvas. We are willing to partner with motivated individuals, organisations, and institutions.
