Back To School Campaign- A CSR Initiative Of Golden Source in Partnership With Chandrmohan Foundation
Amidst this pandemic, education has been significantly affected. At the bottom of this lies Early Childhood Education and Care.
Being unable to attend Anganwadis or schools, these children have been forced to stay home for over a year. That has resulted in creating a gap in their early learning and development.
However, during this time, various organizations have taken up the space of front-line warriors. To help young children from economically underprivileged backgrounds continue their learning in the absence of school, ChandraMohan Foundation, along with Golden Source have led this CSR Initiative of providing “Back to School Kits” to children.
The distribution of kits happened in phases.
Phase 1 – Kits were distributed to anganwadis in Pune
Phase 2 – Kits were distributed to school children in Mumbai
These STEAM ‘Back to School’ kits contain three different games, designed and conceptualized by Imagimake in collaboration with Goldensource and ChandraMohan Foundation are built especially for Indian children. These kits have proven to be beneficial for the children’s holistic development through innovative learning methods.
Why STEAM Kits
A STEAM Kit is a take-home set of something to play with that fits into one of five categories: science, technology, engineering, arts, or math. During the pandemic, it is of the utmost importance that children learn using the most innovative methods, to make the process of learning more inclusive and engaging. The STEAM kits gave these children a chance to gamify the process of learning and build knowledge within the various streams of STEAM education from the comfort of their homes.
