Our study-center attendees, coming as they do from impoverished villages, often  grow up without books, toys, excursions and the many other blessings children from wealthier families enjoy. We regularly conduct special programs to give these children chance to participate in fun activities! In addition, in an area which is deeply divided along lines of caste, children from different castes learn to associate with each other and form friendships.

The week-long summer camp is a highlight of the year, where the children participate in dance  and art classes, drawing competitions, sports activities and we usually squeeze in some spoken English classes and moral stories.  The average attendance is about 160 children for the week of activities.  See photos »
