Study Centers

• Problem It is a well-known fact that in many
  villages, the poor students lack basic facilities
  like electricity. In many cases, parents don't
  have any education to guide their children in
  their studies. They also can't afford to send
  them to any private tuition classes or provide
  any other additional support. Due to this, many
  students are not able to get through even 10th
  class. This failure ratio is discouraging other
  parents from sending their children to schools.

Basic Facilities in Schools

• ProblemThere are many schools without the basic
  infrastructural facilities like class rooms,
  benches and tables, library, science lab, sports
  equipment and other essential supplies. Due to
  this many schools are unable to provide quality
  education.

Scholarships

• The objective of Scholarships program is to
  create a competitive spirit among students
  studying in different schools located in selected
  region. Through this program, the poor highest
  rank holders are selected for scholarships.
  Depending on the progress of these rank holders,
  we will also extend support for their higher
  education.This program will also encourage the
  parents to pay more attention on their children's
  education. It will also be helpful for them
  financially. Other students will also get
  inspired by the achievements of their peers. This
  long-term commitment to students' education
  provides dramatic results.

Support A Student

• Dropout rate in Indian primary, middle and high
  schools, especially in rural areas, continues to
  be shamefully high even after 57 years after
  independence and in spite of innumerable programs
  taken up by the Government.The reasons for such
  high dropout rates among village kids include
  poverty, lack of awareness about the importance
  of literacy, and lack of conducive environment.
  The magnitude of the problem calls for our
  concerted efforts, not just by government, but
  also by all those concerned with the quality of
  life of the people. That is why SPREAD INDIA has
  been focusing on education with the help of
  generous people like you.After discussing with
  the schoolteachers and village elders, we believe
  that the following will help in lowering the drop
  out rates in schools. First and foremost thing
  is that we need to extend financial help to kids.
  Through our help the school kid can acquire the
  most basic things like books, clothes, food and a
  conducive environment where the kid can study
  without much distraction.

Adult Education

• Problem The level of poverty and illiteracy in
  India is frightening! More than one fourth of the
  population of one billion is poor, and 35 is
  illiterate - although among the poorest that
  figure is much higher. This illiteracy is leading
  to early marriages, over population, poor
  sanitation, etc. Literacy is very essential for
  the economic development of our country.
  Recognizing the need for its improvement,
  various Government and non-Government agencies
  have been working for many years and have
  achieved some success. However the teeming
  millions of rural India still need substantial
  help to improve their literacy rate. Realizing
  this, SPREAD INDIA is determined to implement
  Adult Education Centers Activity aggressively in
  various villages.

Health Camps

• Problem Many villages lack basic health care
  facilities. Poor sanitation is another major
  factor contributing to health hazards. People
  need to go to nearby towns even for their basic
  health needs. If there is any medical emergency,
  they can't afford the associated cost. Hence
  there is a need for Primary Health Centers in
  each village. Though some villages have Primary
  Health Centers for name sake, they don't have
  even minimum facilities. In order to fulfill
  these needs, SPREAD INDIA has decided to identify
  the needy villages and organize health camps time
  to time. Providing some basic sanitation
  facilities and educating the people to keep their
  surroundings safe and clean are important goals
  of SPREAD INDIA.

Rural Infrastructure Development

• Problem As you are well aware, many rural people
  in India are forced to leave the villages and
  migrate to the nearest towns/cities because of
  the poor infrastructural facilities. Lack of
  drinking water, sanitation, medical facilities,
  and lack of basic roads and irrigation facilities
  are some of the main reasons why people are
  leaving the villages. Spread India recognizes
  this situation as a major concern and commits to
  get involved in reconstruction of infrastructure
  in our villages.
• Please let us know if you wish to get involved in
  developing in your own village or any other
  village through Spread India.
