BELAKU SHIKSHANA – Lighting the Path Through Education

With this belief, Chinivar Foundation proudly launches its first flagship program, BELAKU Shikshana, a holistic child support initiative that goes far beyond paying school fees.

“Belaku” means light, and through BELAKU Shikshana, we commit to being that guiding light in a child’s educational journey.

🌟 Support Education. Be the Light. 🌟

1. Why Belaku Shikshana Was Born

Why Education Is the Strongest Form of Light

At Chinivar Foundation, we believe education is the most sustainable form of empowerment. It equips children with knowledge, resilience, and the ability to shape their own future.

When Chinivar Foundation began its work, we asked ourselves:

Where can we create long-lasting, meaningful impact?

The answer was clear — education first.

BELAKU Shikshana was born from this belief. It is not a short-term intervention, but a long-term commitment to ensuring that children grow with dignity, confidence, and opportunity.

2. The Need We Saw on the Ground

What We Witnessed: Barriers Children Face in Continuing School

Through field interactions, home visits, and community engagement, we witnessed how easily children can be pushed out of the education system—not due to lack of ability, but due to circumstance.

Common barriers included:

• Irregular or unpaid school fees
• Lack of uniforms, books, and learning essentials
• Financial instability at home
• Emotional stress and uncertainty
• High risk of school dropouts

These on-ground experiences shaped BELAKU Shikshana into a program that addresses both academic and emotional gaps, ensuring continuity rather than temporary relief.

3. Choosing the Right School Partner

Partnering with Purpose: Why This School

A program is only as strong as its partnerships. Chinivar Foundation carefully selects schools that align with our values of transparency, collaboration, and child-first education.

We are proud to share that Chinivar Foundation has signed an LOU with Jnana Vikas Public School, a partner that demonstrated:

• Commitment to child well-being
• Transparent communication and fee structure
• Willingness to collaborate on reviews and reporting
• Shared belief in education as empowerment

4. Background Verification & Field Assessment

Understanding the Child Beyond Paperwork

Before extending support, Chinivar Foundation follows a structured background verification process to ensure genuine need and responsible use of funds.

Our verification process includes:

• Home visits to understand living conditions and family structure
• Family income assessment and employment verification
• School-level verification with teachers and administrators
• Review of academic history, attendance, and learning interest
• Understanding emotional and social challenges faced by the child

These visits are not audits—they are conversations. They allow us to listen, observe, and understand realities beyond documentation. This on-ground experience forms the foundation of every support decision under BELAKU Shikshana.

5. Our First Two Children (Without Names)

Two Stories, One Shared Dream

Under BELAKU Shikshana, Chinivar Foundation is sponsoring the education of two children studying in different grades.

The children come from a single-mother family of four. Their father passed away during the COVID pandemic. Their mother, now the sole bread earner, works as a home cook, starting her day at 5:00 AM, striving tirelessly to ensure her children remain in school.

Following home verification, background checks, and school validation, Chinivar Foundation identified the genuine need and extended support under BELAKU Shikshana.

We share their journey without names—because our focus is not sympathy, but dignity, resilience, and potential.

6. What Sponsorship Really Means (Beyond Fees)

More Than Fees: What Belaku Shikshana Commits To

BELAKU Shikshana sponsorship represents a long-term partnership with the child and family, not a one-time financial contribution.

Our commitment includes:

• Uninterrupted education continuity
• Half-yearly academic and well-being reviews
• Attendance and progress tracking
• Periodic family income reassessment
• Emotional stability through consistent engagement

This ensures that support evolves with the child’s needs.

7. The C.A.R.E Model in Action

How the C.A.R.E Model Guides Our Support

BELAKU Shikshana is guided by Chinivar Foundation’s C.A.R.E Model:

🌱 C – Core Education Stability
We make sure every child stays in school, learns without breaks, and never drops out.

🌱 A – Access to Growth & Opportunities
We open doors for children to discover their talents through sports, arts, skills and real-world exposure.

🌱 R – Resilience & Well-being
We protect every child's physical and emotional well-being so they can learn with confidence and safety.

🌱 E – Enable an Empowered Future
We give each child a mentor who guides, supports and prepares them for life beyond school.

This model ensures holistic development beyond academics.

8. Accountability & Transparency Promise

Our Promise to Every Donor and Supporter

Trust is central to our work. Chinivar Foundation commits to:

• Ethical and responsible use of funds
• Transparent impact reporting
• Protection of child identity and data
• Regular communication with donors and partners

Every contribution is treated with integrity and purpose.

9. A Beginning, Not a Milestone

This Is Just the Beginning

Supporting two children is only the start. BELAKU Shikshana envisions:

• Supporting more children in need
• Partnering with more schools
• Building a scalable, sustainable education support model

Each child supported strengthens our belief in education as lasting light.
