GROWTHGROWTHGROWTH PLANPLANPLAN "Dhanam is twice blessed. It blesses the one who gives and the one who receives them" - Pujya Swami Dayananda Saraswati Unlocking the Potential of Rural India The landmark Right to Free and Compulsory Education Act 2009 is one of the rst steps to ensure all children have access to education in India. The schools are open; but how many children in rural India actually make it to school? The Census 2011 data has revealed two alarming facts: as many as 78 lakh Indian children are forced to earn a livelihood even as they attend schools; and 8.4 crore children don't go to school at all - that's nearly 20 percent of the age group covered under the Right to Education Act. A majority of these children land up wasting their time, doing domestic chores or nothing at all. The AIM for Seva Impact l Education to Employment is the focus: over 100 students cleared their class 12 board examinations and went onto pursue higher education. l 15% of our students went onto to pursue higher studies and have found jobs in corporate houses like Sundaram Finance, Wipro, Tata Consultancy Services. They are all rst generation learners. l Skilling India - A skill test is conducted every quarter and based on the student's capabilities they are guided to enrol for courses l Encourage cross-cultural Exchange - over 500 students have moved out of their home states to educate themselves l We foster the cause of girl child education: we have 18 Free Student Hostels for girls. l Over 3500 students study in AIM for Seva's Schools - Khategaon in Madhya Pradesh and Dharmapuri, Kadalur, Manjakkudi and Sembangudi in Tamil Nadu.
