WOOPIE programme
Tender Heart runs an impactful program called WOOPIE (Way-Out-Of-Poverty-Is-Education) focused on educating children from slums. This program aims to break the cycle of poverty by providing essential educational opportunities to those who need them the most.
WOOPIE specifically targets children from nearby slums and villages, offering them a chance to attend an after-school program. This initiative provides basic education and helps these children expand their knowledge base. The program is designed not just to impart academic skills but also to broaden the children's perspectives and enhance their interactions with the world around them. The environment is supportive and nurturing, aimed at fostering a love for learning and encouraging intellectual curiosity. By engaging with a structured curriculum and participating in various educational activities, the children can achieve significant improvements in their academic abilities. Once the children reach a certain level of literacy and show promise in their academic pursuits, the most promising students are transferred to the morning school. This transition is a crucial step in their educational journey, as it places them in a more formal and rigorous academic setting where they can continue to develop their skills and knowledge. In addition to the educational support provided by WOOPIE, Tender Heart collaborates with the Akshaya Patra Foundation to ensure the nutritional needs of the children are met. The Akshaya Patra Foundation offers nutritious meals to the children, addressing the critical issue of hunger and ensuring that the students have the energy and focus needed for their studies. This partnership helps create a holistic environment where children can thrive both academically and physically. Through the WOOPIE program and the support of the Akshaya Patra Foundation, Tender Heart aims to create a sustainable and transformative impact on the lives of slum children. By providing them with quality education and nutritious food, the program empowers these children to envision and work towards a brighter future, ultimately contributing to the alleviation of poverty in their communities. |
