The Le Meridien Nagpur collaborates with Skills on Wheels project

The initiative aims at transferring skills and enhancing the opportunities available to kids

Gulson Foundation, a non-profit organisation founded by Gul Advani in 1994 has touched many lives and extended wholehearted support to various organisations providing support towards terminal and critical illnesses, primary health, education and poverty reduction. The Gulson Foundation recently launched the "Skills on Wheels" initiative with the goal of transferring skills and enhancing the opportunities available to children. 

As part of this project, the NGO trains the disadvantaged people on the go in a variety of programmes, such as tailoring, basic computer training, baking, and beauty and wellness training. They have two vans under this initiative that are intended and equipped to conduct classroom sessions in any distant area of the country. The cutting-edge truck is air-conditioned and furnished with benches, computers and smart TVs, among other amenities. Additionally, they ran a 250 participant, agriculture-based training programme in five communities. Eleven households have begun their own goat farming thanks to the Satara training programme in goat raising. Gulson Learning Center (Shirdi), which was founded with the intention of developing the skills of Rural India and providing wings to apply those talents, has already helped over 400 individuals and has a number of courses planned. They want to work with business to close the supply-demand gap and give disadvantaged youngsters opportunity.

Pratham is an innovative learning organisation created to improve the quality of education in India. As one of the largest NGOs in the country, Pratham focusses on high-quality, low-cost and replicable interventions to address gaps in the education system. Established in 1995 to provide education to children in the slums of Mumbai, Pratham has grown both in scope and geographical coverage.
