Development of Library

With the support of the Kerala State Forest Department and Totem Resource Center, RUF set up a library for the under-resourced tribal students at Kaloor, Wayanad.

Act of kindness

Our program ESCD (Educational Scientific and Cultural Development) primarily aims to overcome challenges which obstructs a child’s access to basic amenities in education. This is achieved by providing them with various resource support, improvising household capital , developing infrastructure of public educational institutions and mentoring support.

Shortage in basic supply crockeries makes it difficult for L P School, Valiyashala, Trivandrum to supply mid-day meals to students. As a part of empowering public institutions which indeed are the last resort of under-served, We extended our service by supplying crockeries.
