Our Story
Education is not the filing of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.
“Empowering students with knowledge”
In 2019, we started supporting Vishwa Kala Niketan Model English School (a Government-aided school in Bangalore) by providing in-house trained teachers for subjects of STEM. However, when the COVID pandemic broke out, the school management requested us to equip the teachers with the necessary tools for online classes.
Available and accessible to all; we make learning effective and impactful.
Tuitions are an extra mile that an educator walks to build an understanding of the core learning and concepts for young achievers.
The senior teachers were finding it difficult to acquaint themselves with the virtual medium. While some managed to take online classes, others found it challenging. Engagement from students’ side became poor as those from weaker economic backgrounds had just one phone in the family. Few also lacked access to study materials.
Every legacy begins somewhere. This could be ours, together.
Framing the base of one’s perceptions on different aspects of life is an essential step towards a promising tomorrow.
We believed an application would be able to address the above concerns. Thus, SSLC Connect was created to serve the needs of all students of the State Syllabus in the English medium. Six main subjects like Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, English, Hindi, and Kannada languages are covered.
We helped several Government Schools in Bangalore and Kolar in our first year, but our hearts wanted to help more children get access to education in these tough times.
"How we got here. "
With the vision of a world with equal opportunities and the right to education for all, our mission is to provide education and learning to children – especially in low resource environments.
"Bringing it home."
The immense appreciation and recognition we have garnered through our beneficiaries has catalysed us our decision to embark on this new project of an NGO (Trust) – The RS Foundation.
