Indian organization HELP Trust started the Evening School in Koliyankulam in the fall of 2007 and today they have 42 students in the program. It was not easy to achieve this level of attendance, but after continuous propagation most of the guardians became interested in educating their children. They showed their support by actively participating in the parents' meetings. Visits to people's houses showed that they were happy with what we are doing.

Community involvement is critical to the success of our project. We now start to see this involvement increase and the positive impact it has on the project. Kids like the activity-based training, games and life skills teaching at the school. The school tries to further develop our curriculum to expand on the possibilities available with this type of education. Kids understand the importance of education and can see its lasting and positive impact through roll play and other experiential learning activities.

People The people from the community struggle for their livelihood, live in small one room thatched roof houses and often need their children to work to support the family.
