[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Synergy Educational and Charity Trust has proudly adopted the special school for laborer’s children at Egattur in Chennai that provides education for close to 130 kids in various age groups.
A school is not only a place that educates students, but rather an environment that provides students with the necessary foundation to foster future growth into productive citizens and future leaders. The Synergy trust works closely with a range of voluntary organizations who support families with children having special educational needs.
We believe that education is the most effective way for individuals to improve their lives.
Coming from humble homes which do not have any electricity during the day, where parents work for more than 12 hours a day doing hard construction work, the children beat all the odds to get an education. The children are often pulled into labor work themselves as soon as they are deemed old enough to carry bricks and this is a unfortunate circle that makes it difficult for them to break out of poverty.
The volunteers from our team strive hard to ensure that the basic needs of the children are taken care of as well as the tools required to impart and provide quality education are available. The school strives to provide such an environment where the children would be motivated to come to school, and the Synergy family wants to help however we can to aid them.
The Synergy team’s volunteers made another trip to the Egattur special school recently. Four year old boy ‘Tulsiram’ who studies in the kindergarten, rushed to greet the volunteers and talked to them excitedly, eager to share the rhymes he had learnt. Volunteers had arrived at the campus along with gifts in the form of school uniforms, stationery, notebooks and sports items.
The school classroom, which only recently got electricity, is filled with drawings and charts made by the children. Language was not a barrier for these kids, who proudly sang aloud the songs they had learnt, and showed the volunteers their notebooks with their homework written in a neat hand.
The children are so much full of unbridled enthusiasm, and inspire us to continue working towards providing them quality education.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
