Mission Statement
To motivate and support as many under-served as we can, for education, good health, vocational training & employment
About This Cause
NeeV is a learning centre for the under-served under Bharat Memorial Charitable Trust (set up in 1997). It was initiated in 2007 with the intent of imparting education, vocational training and healthcare to the children of the economically weaker population of Gurgaon which has migrant labourers in large numbers. They are primarily children of domestic help, gardeners, guards, drivers, masons, construction site workers and rickshaw pullers. Started as a small set up of 8 students and 1 facilitator, we are now a strong team of 380 students and 43 facilitators! We have classes from nursery to XII and follow NCERT curriculum up to grade VII followed by NIOS (National Institute of Open Schooling) curriculum. Our grade VIII students take the Open Basic Education exam and grade X & XII students take the NIOS exam. Simultaneously, we have enrolled our beneficiaries who are above 12 years of age in various computer courses designed specially keeping their limitations and needs in mind to make them job ready at the end of their tenure at NeeV. The sessions are held at our vocational training centre, 'IT’s Magic!’ and the software for the same is provided by Microsoft, our software donation partner. Besides academics, we also focus on the development of spoken English skills through bi-weekly workshops, personality development and health ’n’ hygiene sessions, public speaking workshops, library periods during which books are issued and discussed along with story sessions. Our recent addition of an AV facility helps us carry out digital teaching sessions at NeeV. Biannual deworming of all is carried out. Elaborate vaccinations have been carried out for all students over the last couple of years which besides the basic ones also include hepatitis and cervical cancer cover. A healthy snack, usually a seasonal whole fruit is provided to all every day. Two sets of both summer and winter uniforms are provided to all. Excursion trips are organised from time to time and a gala annual cultural programme is organised every year where all parents, partners, and friends are invited to enjoy and appreciate the efforts of the students. Our facilitators are a mix of both salaried as well as volunteering individuals. They are an extremely qualified, passionate and high-energy set of people who are working relentlessly to help these children find their place under the Sun. Our center’s performance can be measured from the fact, that the parents of our beneficiaries take immense pride in watching their ward’s progress by seeing them speaking in English, performing confidently in front of so many people on our annual day, operating computer with dexterity and getting excellent grades in their centre and board exams. Now, we have more number of aspirants for admission at our center than we can accommodate due to infrastructure and resource constraints! Additionally, a few of our older beneficiaries have joined various universities in NCR while others have picked up respectable full/part-time jobs by virtue of being educated and computer savvy. NeeV is a project under Bharat Memorial Charitable Trust (BMCT). BMCT was registered in 1997 at Panchkula (Haryana). We also have 80G certification and an FCRA accreditation.
