Overview

Empowering Children Through Education | Saath’s Holistic Learning Programs
At Saath, we believe education is the key to long-term empowerment and equity. Our programs span early childhood to adolescence, focusing on joyful, inclusive learning for underprivileged children.

Through Balghars we support early development for children aged 3–5 and help migrant children transition into formal schooling with play-based learning, nutrition, and milestone tracking.

For older children, especially girls aged 10–13, our STEM Education Program fosters creativity and academic growth through hands-on modules in science, technology, engineering, and math.

Our child friendly spaces provide a safe atmosphere for children of migrant construction workers where they learn and grow into healthier and happier citizens.

We enhance learning through exposure visits, sports, health check-ups, and parent-teacher engagement, while training centre managers to uphold quality education standards.

In 2023–24, Saath impacted over 20,000 children in Ahmedabad and Jaipur, building brighter futures in partnership with communities and parents.

Saath’s Balghars: Nurturing Foundations for Lifelong Learning

Children in informal settlements often face delayed development due to limited access to early education and nutrition. To address this, Saath offers structured, nurturing early learning for marginalized children aged 3–5 in areas like Juhapura and Vatva, helping them build a strong foundation before entering formal schooling.

Impact of the Program :

  • ● 647 children are currently enrolled across all centers.
  • ● 84 children (52%) who were previously malnourished have now overcome malnutrition, thanks to consistent health monitoring and community interventions.
  • ● 188 children have successfully transitioned from Balghar into mainstream schools, demonstrating improved school readiness and confidence.

STEM Program

In underserved communities, adolescent girls—especially those aged 10–13 years—face limited exposure to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education due to systemic barriers, early school dropouts, and lack of digital access. This gap not only affects their learning outcomes but also restricts their future career opportunities in emerging fields. Recognizing this, Saath initiated a STEM Program to empower school-going and school-dropout girls with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to explore careers in STEM.

Impact of the Program :

The program has shown tangible results in improving educational access and engagement:

  • ● 577 girls were trained in the last year through STEM classes.
  • ● 800 girls have graduated from the STEM Program to date, including those who had enrolled in earlier cohorts.

Child Friendly Spaces

Children of migrant construction workers often grow up in unstable environments without access to early education or safe spaces for development. With parents engaged in long working hours and lacking childcare options, these children are at high risk of child labour, educational exclusion, and malnourishment. Recognizing the need for intervention, Saath initiated Child Friendly Spaces to offer protection, care, and learning opportunities to these vulnerable children.

Impact of the Program :

The program has provided critical support and education access to hundreds of children:

  • ● 765 children benefited from Saath’s CFS centres across locations.
  • ● Among the children identified with malnourishment, 18 out of 35 have successfully overcome it through consistent care, nutrition monitoring, and supportive interventions.
