Speaking on the occasion Mrs. Kalai Selvi, Head of the School, Vidyashilp Academy said, ”We started our association with WFUNA 4 years ago, it’s encouraging to see the number of student participants steadily increasing. From 13 students in 2015-16, we have 120 students this year working on the SDG’s. We feel so delighted to see our children and their parents equally engaged in this social commitment. Listening to one group of our students while they shared that a differently abled teacher when asked to use the Braille based board game, the joy she and her colleagues sensed was unparalleled. Initiative to create resources to help children who are visually challenged speaks volumes about Shilpites genuine desire to be change influencers. We feel inspired by our student’s sensitivity while handling issues and their goals to bring more meaning to their lives and others. This initiative offers the most significant lessons of life and a journey for our students to prepare themselves for global citizenship.

Being present at the closing ceremony at Vidyashilp Academy was life-changing. I was very proud to see the students’ confidence and excitement for their projects. These students are going to change the world”, said Ms. Monica Burba, WFUNA’s Global Citizenship Education Consultant- New York.
