FROM THE FIELD

Updates from Amrapara, Pakur

Short, plain notes from our program areas, published as they happen and not written for effect. This is where funders and partners can see current activity, beyond the program descriptions above.

๐Ÿ“š Education

Our First Community Learning Centre

In FY 2023โ€“24, our first Community Learning Centre began running in Amrapara Santhali Gram Panchayat โ€” regular after-school reading, writing, and mathematics sessions for enrolled children, run entirely by community volunteers, with no external funding.

๐Ÿ“‹ Baseline

Household Survey Across 9 Villages

Before any classes began, volunteers completed a household survey across our nine intervention villages โ€” identifying children who needed academic support and understanding each family's circumstances. This survey shaped everything that followed.

โค๏ธ Health & Nutrition

Woven Into Every Home Visit

In FY 2023โ€“24, health and nutrition weren't run as separate camps or sessions โ€” they came up naturally during our regular household visits, where volunteers discussed hygiene, child health, and food habits directly with parents.

๐Ÿ“Œ Content Owner Note: The three cards above are drawn directly from the FY 2023โ€“24 Annual Report and are safe to publish as-is. Going forward, this grid is designed to be edited directly, three cards at a time, on a monthly cadence โ€” a field report is already most of a web update; write it in plain language (who, what changed, one number if you have one), 3โ€“4 sentences, no jargon. If a card has nothing real to say this month, leave last month's update up rather than publishing a placeholder.
This is what's happening right now. Not a plan or a promise. It's activity from this month, in these villages, and your support keeps it going.
