2nd training on “Connect-IT” in April 2011 (5th to 7th April) @ Seed Infotech, Kothrud, Pune

Sroat is one year old initiative which aims at building professional best practices at NGOs and bridging gap between corporate and NGOs working at grass root. We conduct organizational development projects such as building various HR, Financial, PR and fund raising processes.
...
While working with various NGOs on their projects, need for improving overall working was felt. To address various issues faced by various NGOs we started “training as per NGO Needs” as a separate branch of SROAT. We launched our first training on Effective documentation in Feb 2011. This training was successfully conducted and various NGO employees attended this training. After the training, interaction with various NGO employees came out the need for training on basic softwares like word excel and PowerPoint.

We are launching our 2nd training on “Connect-IT” in April 2011 (5th to 7th April). We believe that it is need of the time for all NGOs to get trained, not just trained but get hands on exposure on using these softwares.

Details of training are:

Topics: The contents of this training will be MS word, Excel PowerPoint, MS Outlook, basics of computer usage and internet usage.

Duration: 5th, 6th and 7th April 2011

Time: 10.00AM to 5.00PM

Venue: SEED Infotech Ltd, Kothrud (Detail address is given in the invitation)

About 

A community effort towards helping the street kids of Churchgate, Bombay.

Education, Medical Aid and Vocational Training are our key activities.

“Primary education should be about character building, and not the knowledge of ABC” says Mahatama Gandhi. We strongly agree with that. These children belong to families that have lived on the streets for 3 generations. Partly due to lack of opportunities to move on, but more due to lack of will and lack of the ability to see a better future for themselves and their children. This is the key change we would like see in the children we work with.

We hope that one day, the children are able to make the right choices for themselves, and are able to live a healthy, happy life.

At our evening classes, we spend time with the children, on the footpath itself, engaging with them through fun and participatory methods such as story telling, art and craft activities and games. Our functional literacy curriculum includes sessions on learning English, Math and developing Life-Skills. We constantly make an effort to expose our kids to as much as possible, by taking them for outdoor excursions to the zoo, circus, nature parks etc., to help them connect what they see in books to the world around them.

Engaging with them through events and workshops has been a whole lot of fun for the kids and us. Vocational skill development workshops, such as craft, dance and sports related workshops help them realize their potential, and gives them the push they need to follow their dreams.

We have 2 medical camps in a year. We now have individual case studies of each of our children and their family members. We partner with other medical and health care organizations for the same.

Our volunteers include people from all walks of life. We strongly believe in community effort, and through individual action, we aim to make the la
