Meghalaya

The organisation is actively engaged in enhancing the physical infrastructure of Lyngiong Government School located in the East Khasi Hills District of Meghalaya. With 142 students in classes 1-5, the school faces numerous challenges—a tin-roofed building from 1954 without electricity, vulnerable to wind hazards causing occasional roof damage, and significant leakage issues during rainfall leading to class disruptions. Despite these challenges, the school maintains its student count due to the dedication of teachers and the School Management Committee. To address these issues and accommodate community interest in enrollment, the organization plans to construct four classrooms and a toilet block, valuing the project at INR 54 Lakhs (USD 67K). This initiative, fully supported by a corporate donor in India, commenced construction in September 2023 and is projected to conclude within eight months, targeting completion by May 2024.
