March 2020 changed a lot of things not just in India but across the world. With months of lockdown, the economy went downhill affecting millions in India. But definitely, students seemed to be among the worst affected during this pandemic. With schools shutting down for an uncertain period of time, education has taken a backseat and has many parents questioning their children’s futures.
Today,
250 students of St John’s KG School at Amtala are facing a great deal of
uncertainty about their future. For the last one and a half years, the
students are hardly in touch with their school since online classes are
impossible for many due to their family’s financial constraints. What is worse
was the effects of Cyclone Amphan which caused catastrophic damage to the
school destroying a number of classrooms totally.
In
order to ensure a brighter future for the children of this school, Yeh Mera
India, Kolkata-based NGO in
collaboration with the Techno India Group has organized a virtual run to raise
fund to rebuild this school and bring the light of hope and future to these
children.
The
Techno India Group is supporting the OXY- Yeh Mera India run for a cause and was
happy to initiate their students for a run on Aug15 at the Techno India main
campus. The virtual run is taking place from August 15 to 25 to celebrate the nation’s 75th
Independence Day and thus contributing to the future education for these
children.
