KIRF supporting education and skills training for the rural poor in Bihar, India
Over the last decade we have assisted with an education and health center at a school in Shekwara village in Bihar, India in the following ways:
Sewing center supplies: sewing machines (three, non-electric Singer), textiles, sewing supplies and funding for the sewing teacher’s salary.
Electricity and clean drinking water: KIRF purchased and delivered a generator for electricity that powers the school's water pump that provides safe drinking water
Physical education supplies: soccer, cricket, volleyball, fitness, games, and badminton.
Local curriculum-specific educational supplies: textbooks and writing supplies.
