Trust Objective
Development of Education
The Trust works toward providing 3rd level education to the rural areas of Punjab. In the absence of this initiative in a rural district of Punjab, the poor children living here were deprived of university education which is only available in big cities. The trust funded a major building refurbishment and extension of a high school at village Hebowal (Punjab) in 1997-99, creating better facilities for students and teachers. As a result the school was upgraded to a higher secondary school.
Community Development
NNEdPro: Cordia Group of Educational Institutes as part of it’s strategic engagement with NNEdPro Global Centre for Nutrition and Health, Cambridge, UK, is offering the 5th NNEdPro Summer School in Applied Human Nutrition.
Centre for Respect & Understanding (CRU): The project is on track to be sustainable model to empower Indian slumdwelling mothers through entrepreneurship and nutrition education. To reach the stage of sustainability we need funds to support the Mobile Teaching Kitchen unit and ensure a respectable salary for the working mothers for the first few months in a full-scale production. Continue sharing nutrition education through Mobile Teaching Kitchens
