INITIATIVES & ACTIVITIES
Since 2005, Look4Child Foundation objective is to provide 10 years of quality education to underprivileged children from economically disadvantaged families.
Look4Child Project is being implementation at the grass root level to ensure that the Children receives academic and material support. The Look4Child Foundation regularly monitors the NGOs giving technical inputs wherever required to ensure that quality education is being imparted.
SUPPORT TO THE UNDERPRIVILEGED CHILDREN EDUCATION
Academic Support – Children receive academic support through a 1-2 hour class conducted before or after school hours called the Academic Support Center. Here, concepts in Maths, Science and Language are taught, to bridge the gaps in learning and enable children to attain grade-specific competency levels.
Material Support/Kits - The program selects girls based on multiple criteria including enrollment in government schools, family income, parents' educational background, social background and the child's aptitude. A comprehensive sponsorship is created to take care of a range of their educational requirements, providing not only academic support that enables them to make a success of their schooling experience but also material support. This includes uniforms, school bags, shoes , socks etc. to enable the girl child to go to school with dignity. The material kit is ceremoniously handed over to each child at the beginning of the academic year.
The teaching methodology includes the extensive use of innovative teaching tools and activities such as storytelling, group games, etc. which make learning not only meaningful but also fun. Our team also works with the parents and community to sensitize them on gender equality.
Community support involves regular interactions with the children parents and the community to ensure that they don’t drop out of school. Educating children doesn't involve just them but also their families and the communities that they are a part of. Therefore, counseling and sensitizing the community on gender issues forms an important component of our program.
