Programs

Life Building Training Program

Our foundation networks with various groups, agencies and individuals whose fundamental responsibility is to identify schools, colleges and communities that are in need. What we have created is called a Life Building Training Program which incorporates all the important skills necessary for students to carry forward their careers, through communication, English, personality development and social, cultural, scientific and ecological awareness.We have successfully covered over a hundred schools in the recent past and aim to cover more than a thousand schools in the near future. The revenues that are generated through the fees collected from schools for imparting this program are then directed to the trust activities of our foundation. We have been endeavouring to bring about a revolution in the lives of socially and economically deprived classes and transform their lives by strengthening them through various schemes and programs.

Motivational and Skill Development Training for Unemployed Youth

Many villages have scores of youth who are either unemployed or not sufficiently employed in families with meagre income levels. We have developed schemes for such youth and in association with local village communities the targeted members are grouped and trained. Akella Raghavendra Foundation's trained volunteers and eminent personalities are then organised to deliver the developmental programs. These training and skill development programs stretch from a few days to a few months based on the type of programme offered. The foundation also coordinates with various industries located in close vicinities to the village, and organises their internship or even employment with the organisations. Subsequently the youth through their skills will be able to begin living independently.

Support for Orphaned and Visually Challenged Students

Akella Raghavendra Foundation regularly identifies such students who are both orphaned and visually challenged and thereby are at a complete loss of state. These students are provided with all educational support by way of their school and exam fees, clothes, books and requisite coaching support. Their immediate guardians are provided with certain remuneration which can be used by them towards the boarding costs of the said students.

Rural and Tribal Development

Efforts to enhance the quality of life in rural and tribal areas through access to basic facilities such as drinking water, sanitation, and education.The foundation also emphasises on creation of safe drinking water facilities and rural sanitation by helping communities come together to address this humongous need.
