Description of the area and the Organization:
St. Joseph’s Home and School; belongs to Maris Brothers and runs a school for the lower middle class and working class. These children will never get the opportunity of learning computers on their own. The high cost of courses makes studying “ICT” unaffordable. Under the “Functional Literacy Programme” average student as well as others who are interested in computer will get the opportunity to get access to learn the basic understanding working with a computer. Since the beneficiaries are mostly poor and less fortunate this will be a worthy project. Martis Brothers are dedicated to educate the poor children and are committed to develop the lives and families.
