In Sonepur district, we have successfully run six community centres through community support. These centres aim to provide a solid and holistic educational foundation to children from rural and tribal communities. Many of them are first-generation learners. In the learning centre we focus upon the integrated development of the children, and working on quality education and learning by developing their skills as well as being a mentor for them to complete their education successfully. The Centre Facilitators are involved in this process, most of them are the local youth from that particular community or from the nearby villages.

The idea is to create a couple of demonstrative (Model) schools operating under the same conditions, with the same set of resources and similar constraints but still providing quality education and learning opportunities to children with due contribution of all the stakeholders (parents, community, teachers and the Government officials). These few performing schools shall act as catalysts for other schools and people, providing them required inspiration, demonstration and experiences to start contributing in their own capacities towards transformation of education in their own vicinity and of the entire district.

Another crucial objective is to bridge the gap between community and school through library programs. Also we develop locally relevant stories, games, contextual pedagogy wit student, youth, community and teachers.
