More than 20% of Bengaluru’s population consists of daily wage migrant labourers and their children. They are often left with no shot at a childhood. They easily end up in child labour and child marriage. Our learning center is an intervention to help them get education and a safe space to learn, play and rest. We began our center in March 2025 with 8 children and soon grew to now have 30 students
 

Tuitions and Healthy Snacks Mon-Sat

We provide bridge learning for 30 unschooled children of migrant workers aged 5 to 17; basic literacy, math, life science, social education. Breakfast and evening snacks are served for 30 children planned to meet daily needs for protein, good fats, calcium, iron, vitamins and minerals
 

Our Goal

• Promote literacy, wellbeing, health and holistic childcare

• Encourage govt school admissions

• Encourage parents to focus and participate in education and health of children

• Push back child labour and child marriage

 

"Why don't the children go to government schools?"
- The children being from migrant workers families, move locations frequently 
- Language barrier
- Many children get admitted in government schools, but they discontinue due to discriminations

​"Why migrant workers' children?"
- High number of children discontinue education when they migrate
- High risk of discontinued education due to lack of supervision to ensure regular attendance
- High risk of child labour and child marriage

"Why learning centers?"
- Migrant workers work 14-16 hours daily so the children are unsupervised  
- Lack of space, time or encouragement at home to study 
- Safe space to spend time; prevention of physical/verbal violence or child sexual abuse
