Mangala Mirash, Learning facilitator of the Shiksha program, Sathnalli villageI have been a Learning Facilitator with the Shiksha program for the past six years. After completing my 12th standard, my dream of continuing my education was not supported by my family, and I was instead married. However, joining CherYsh became a life-changing opportunity for which I am truly grateful. The joy of sharing knowledge and making a positive impact on the children’s educational journeys keeps me motivated every day. When I am with my students, the outside world fades away, and I am fully immersed in their learning.

James Dsouza, Co-ordinator, BEO, HaliyalAs the Education Coordinator at the Block Education Office, I have had the privilege of collaborating with CherYsh for the past seven years. My introduction to CherYsh came when they expressed interest in training their Learning Facilitators in English. Given the educational challenges in the Taluk where CherYsh operates, we partnered to launch the Learning Facilitator Training Program, which has significantly supported many women in teaching English within the community. This initiative has not only addressed the education gap but also provided valuable employment opportunities for young women in the region.
