Atma Foundation

Uyare is an Education Project implemented by ATMA Foundation, providing online learning support to underprivileged children, including those residing in children's homes.Children who hail from socio-economically deprived backgrounds face various challenges in academics. They have no safe homes - either due to poor economic conditions, absence of functional parents, or due to other serious issues in the family or social environment.Uyare looks forward to providing a firm academic foundation and enhanced learning skills to these children.
Uyare participants receive regular online sessions on the fundamentals of different subjects, including mathematics, English, science, social studies, and Malayalam, with the support of 30 plus volunteer teachers from different parts of the world. 600 plus children, both girls and boys, from 36 child care institutions across Kerala have so far benefited from this project.

The Digital and Financial Empowerment Center (DAFEC) is a project launched by ATMA Foundation in 2019 to bridge the digital and financial divide in rural areas. The center provides free courses and training to empower individuals with computer and internet skills, as well as promote financial literacy and wise money management.
The standalone center, located at the ATMA Foundation office in Thrissur, offers short-term courses in basic computer skills and internet usage, including training in MS Office, Python, C++, and Malayalam typing. Additionally, ATMA Foundation conducts outreach programs through traveling classrooms, reaching underserved populations and providing financial literacy sessions and awareness programs on savings, investments, and loans.
By providing access to technology and financial education, 500 participants in rural and coastal areas are given basic digital and financial awareness through 94 sessions.
