Relationship with Varthana
Kumar had the potential to bring a positive change to the society through education but was lacking the necessary funds. Fortunately, he found a strong partner in Varthana and was able to improve the infrastructure of his school. Kumar used the funds for painting the building and purchasing extra benches and fans, which greatly improved the learning environment for his students.
“Varthana RM reached out to us and explained the loan terms and conditions; we liked the process; it was simple, smooth, and the representative was cooperative when collecting the documents,” Kumar stated enthusiastically and added that he was able to provide every document that was required for the loan. “I am really impressed with the flexibility and support provided by Varthana. They are accommodating when it comes to my individual needs. With their help, I am able to take this school to the next level and provide better education to the students.”
The school is now a beacon of excellence in the village, providing top-notch education for students and creating jobs and economic opportunities for residents. This partnership with Varthana has been instrumental in helping Kumar achieve his vision of making a positive impact on the community through education.
With Varthana’s assistance, Kumar has been able to provide quality education and employment opportunities to the people in his village, thus improving the overall quality of life in the area.
Contributing to the community
Kumar’s investment in the school was the result of more than just financial means – it was an investment of faith, hope, and dedication to the future of the community. His commitment to ensuring the best primary education for the community’s children has had a lasting and profound impact on the lives of the students and their families.
The school has flourished under his guidance; from the mere 30 students it had earlier, it now has over 300, many of whom would not have had the opportunity to access basic education if not for Kumar’s intervention.
The school has also introduced a range of extracurricular activities, clubs and competitions to allow students to explore and develop their skills, and the dedicated and highly qualified teachers ensure the students, who are from different social backgrounds, are engaged and motivated.
Kumar is also planning to introduce more modern facilities, resources, and technology to further enhance the learning experience.
The lockdown was a difficult and challenging time, yet thanks to Kumar’s hardwork and dedication, the school was able to reach around 90% of its student strength through online education and remedial classes when it reopened. Kumar is now proud that he has truly made a lasting difference to the lives of countless students and their families in Baghpat.
