Education
in Every Corner: Empowering 450 Children for a Brighter Tomorrow
“Education
is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” – Nelson
Mandela With limited resources but unlimited enthusiasm, children from the
villages gather eagerly to learn under the open sky. Their dedication to
education proves that true learning does not depend on classrooms, but on
determination and the will to grow. Vimukti continues to nurture these young
minds, paving the way for a brighter future.
The
Vimukti Child Resource Centers (CRCs) have become vital community-based
platforms in our villages, offering children safe, supportive, and stimulating
spaces after school hours. These village-level CRCs create an environment where
learning is joyful and accessible, ensuring that no child is left behind due to
economic or social barriers. At each center, children gather weekly to engage in
age-appropriate activities that strengthen reading, writing, numeracy, and
problem-solving skills. They enjoy access to storybooks, learning materials,
sports equipment, and creative tools that sharpen both their academic and life
skills. Alongside academic growth, the centers emphasize teamwork, leadership,
and confidence-building through group activities and child-friendly discussions.
Importantly, these centers are deeply rooted in the rural communities they
serve. They link children and families with educational resources, health
awareness, and opportunities that encourage overall well-being. Parents and
community members are also involved, making the CRCs not just learning spaces
but shared hubs of development. Today, nearly 550 children from multiple
villages actively participate in these Child Resource Centers. The initiative
has brought visible change—children are performing better in schools, showing
improved discipline and confidence, and developing a stronger sense of
responsibility towards their peers and community.
The
“Brighter Minds, Stronger Futures” programme supports slow learners in 15
villages of Manvi Taluka, Raichur District, by providing personalized academic
guidance and value-based education. In these rural communities, many children
face learning gaps due to inadequate school instruction and limited resources,
which affect both their academic performance and personal growth. To bridge this
gap, Vimukti has established evening tuition centres offering focused learning
support, foundational skill-building, and confidence development. Nearly 655
children are currently benefiting, with visible improvements in grades,
participation, and self-esteem. This initiative is not just about better marks —
it’s about empowering children to dream big, learn with confidence, and build a
stronger future for themselves and their communities.
The
Vimukti Child Resource Centers (CRCs) serve as vibrant child-support hubs within
marginalized communities, offering safe, engaging, and educational spaces for
children beyond regular school hours. These centers provide alternative learning
experiences designed to nurture creativity, curiosity, and critical thinking
among children from our targeted villages. Each CRC offers an age-appropriate
learning platform where children are encouraged to participate weekly. They have
access to a variety of play materials, library books, and writing tools that
enhance their reading, writing, general knowledge, and motor skills through
games and sports. The centers not only help improve academic performance but
also foster social interaction and personal development. Furthermore, CRCs act
as bridges to wider community resources by offering valuable information,
learning opportunities, and materials that empower children and support their
families. They are instrumental in building a culture of learning and shared
growth. Currently, nearly 350 children are actively benefiting from the programs
conducted through these Child Resource Centers.
Vimukti
Pothnal has taken a significant step towards empowering adolescent girls by
reaching out to 250 girls across four villages. The primary aim of this
initiative is to educate them about their rights, child protection laws, health,
and gender sensitization. The program focuses on motivating these girls to
continue their education and avoid dropping out of school. Vimukti is raising
awareness among adolescent girls about the importance of maintaining good
health, including adopting healthy eating habits and self-care practices. The
initiative also educates them about their legal rights and the laws that protect
them from abuse, exploitation, and human trafficking. To achieve these
objectives, Vimukti is providing ongoing support in 4villages, benefiting nearly
250 adolescent girls. The formation of adolescent clubs has played a key role in
building their confidence and creating a safe space for learning and mutual
support. Through these clubs, the girls are becoming more aware, motivated, and
equipped with the knowledge they need to protect themselves from harmful
practices and societal evils. One of the most significant milestones of this
initiative is the formation of the Sabala Kishori Sangha, a collective that
empowers young girls to assert their rights and work towards shaping a brighter,
more secure future.

Pothnal proudly organized a Certificate Distribution Program on July 11, 2025,
at Rajalabanda village, Manvi Taluk, to honor the women who successfully
completed a five-month free sewing training course. This initiative is part of
Vimukti s ongoing mission to empower rural women with practical skills that pave
the way to financial independence. The program was graced by Mr. Jayashil
Dotharbandi, Coordinator of Vimukti, who highlighted the significance of such
training programs in transforming the lives of marginalized women by offering
them sustainable livelihood opportunities through tailoring. Chief Guest Mr.
Kashav Nayak from Rajalabanda appreciated Vimukti's dedicated efforts in
promoting women s economic empowerment and encouraged the trainees to utilize
their skills confidently and become role models for others in the community.
Around 35 women trainees received their course completion certificates, a proud
moment that was both motivational and symbolic of their determination. The
presence of the trainer Mrs. Mariyamma, along with enthusiastic trainees and
community members, added warmth and energy to the event. This ceremony marked
yet another milestone in Vimukti s commitment to building a more equitable and
self-reliant rural society, where women are skilled, confident, and economically
empowered.
