Millennium Fellowship Project: Project Noor
Project NOOR is the Outreach Program of our
college. The idea of the project was conceived
in the year 2017 , by a group of students and
faculty.
At the time of it's commencement the project
had only one wing, under which volunteers taught the children who lived in
the nearby slum who were deprived of schooling opportunity. At Noor we
believe that development of children is
impossible without the wholesome
development of the community. Thus We also
conduct various workshop and session (in
collaboration with NGOs) on topics such as
menstrual hygiene, child sexual abuse,
environmental protection etc.
In June 2018, the project entered into it's
second phase and decided to work with
Safai Karamachari Andolan (an organisation which works for the rehabilitation of Safai Karmacharis), thus leading to the establishment of it's second wing.
