The wait is over! On 22nd November, the inauguration of our digital studio, “Project WHY online” with the help of Adish and Asha Jain Foundation. It was very kind of them to offer us all the things we needed for our studio.
The online classes will allow us to give quality education across all our centres for our senior classes. Having classes online will allow our children to revise during exam time and also to remain in touch when they go to their village. This will also allow us to expand our reach as the classes are free and for anyone who may want to access them. We want every child from everywhere to get the benefit of education via this new mode of learning.
It was a very warm ribbon-cutting ceremony by our dear friend Mr. Xavier Ray, President of Enfances Indiennes. We want to thank him for making this opening even more special and memorable. So, please be part of our journey

The children enjoyed her doughnuts and wanted more!!!

Meet KIKO the clown! He travels around the world and brings a smile on the faces of children by entertaining them with his magic skills, juggling talent and art of drama. Project WHY has been lucky to enjoy his talent, at his initiative and with the support of Enfances Indiennes. After few weeks of intense volunteering, Kiko put up a little show for the kids with lots of fun and laughter, where he did a magic show. The kids had a great time.
We do hope that he returns soon and wish him all the best as he carries on bringing joy to children across the world

In January of this year, we opened a beauty skills centre for the women of the community. This is to teach the ladies new skills and make them more independent.
In this centre, we have employed the mother of one of our ex students.
In the first 6 months, the ladies learnt the basic and now many of them are doing well and have started earning after learning this new skill.
In the month of September, the first batch completed level one ( basic of beauty course)

At all our Project WHY centres, the children are happily getting ready to welcome the festival by making decorations and painting diyas for their classrooms.
Every year, all our children make it a very serious activity in class. They also have fun and laughs and get a chance to be very creative.
Also, our Special Needs children, like every year have been seriously working in their vocational class, preparing diyas and other decorative items for their sales in CSKM and Azure Hospitality. This is a small way to make them learn independent job skills.

India’s ancient system of education and the New Education Policy talks about Panchkosha, the five dimensions of a child’s development. Education which fosters holistic development and goes beyond academics is what builds WHOLE child.
At project WHY we create a leaning environment which offers opportunity to every child, irrespective of their age, to identify/explore, develop and build their interests, skills and talents. We do not limit our work to after school academic education. We know that children will grow
Every Saturday is devoted to extra curricular activities. Children engage in activities of their choice. Painting, drawing, dancing, singing, gardening, reading, board games, debates, discussions, theatre are all given equal importance. Building communication skills, learning social etiquettes, imbibing moral values is an integral part of our wholesome education.
All this is done against the wishes and desires of most of the parents. To them, education is about learning from school books and getting good grades. We are still facing lot of opposition to the concept of holistic education. Not being discouraged, our team of educators have continued their efforts to facilitate holistic learning. WE DO WHAT WE STRONGLY BELIVE IN.
The result of Project WHY’s efforts is visible through the achievements of our children who have been regularly receiving acknowledgement for their performance in both academic and extra curricular.
