Education + Training + Care = Empowerment
Access to Education
Access to education through provision of transport whether on a bus or a bicycle is a huge change agent in the lives of girls that would simply not have any option other than to become homemakers after finishing school at primary or elementary level.
Access to Training
These days an education is not complete without learning how to use a computer. Vast numbers of our youth living in remote areas, do not have access to computer technology. In 2022 White Lotus Trust provided three month computer foundation courses to 280 girls from ten remote villages in Jharkhand and advanced courses are already underway in 2023.
Access to (CARE) Water, Health, Nutrition
Lack of health services and knowledge of basic hygiene leads to many social ills and impacts on education and livelihood outcomes. Our CARE programs include Village based health programs and provision of nutrition for school children.
Spotlight on 2023 Impacts
White Lotus programs represent a wide range of education, training and health (CARE) strategies arranged in verticals to serve the particular needs of women and children living in poverty.
Over the course of 2023 White Lotus projects brought a sharp focus on closing the loop by providing access to education and training to prepare young aspirants to make better choices with respect to their choice of subjects and employment pathways.
During this year we provided 1040 young women with basic and employment targetted advanced computer skills, many of which had not touched a computer in the course of their education. A further 528 were provided direction toward further education and career path development through our Career Counselling training programs more than ably delivered by our University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) accredited Counsellors, at Delhi and Jharkhand.
Our Blossom Bus and Lotus Pedals programs continue to ensure access to education and training for girls and young women facing issues of safety and remoteness by serving 553 in 2023 while afterschool learning centres and school meals served the needs of 1205 elementary school children!!
We are ever grateful to the many funding organisations as well as individual and corporate donors for your continued support in our mission to uplift and provide opportunities to thousands of deserving young women and children every year. There's lots more to share so please see our short program summaries below and follow links for more detailed information about White Lotus Trust and programs.
