Programme 06 — Recognition & motivation
A child who is seen once works differently for the next two years.
Awards for the students who topped the SSC exams, and a public thank-you to the headmasters and teachers behind them.
In a government school, a child who tops the tenth class often does it with no fuss at all — no function, no photograph, nothing to put on the wall.
Our recognition programme puts that child in front of the school with a certificate, a small cheque for college, and a speech. The same function felicitates the headmasters and teachers who made the result possible, because they are the reason it repeats.
How it is run
The school selects the students on results; we never choose a child ourselves. The cash award is paid into the student's own account or the college's.
What it includes
The short list, agreed with the school, the home or the household.
How you can help
Three ways that actually move this programme forward.
Sponsor an award
One SSC topper's college expenses for the first year.
Speak at a function
If you came out of a government school, a room of students would like to hear it.
Help with admissions
Two afternoons in June, filling intermediate and polytechnic forms.
