Navsari Girls Boarding School
Siksha Foundation selected the Navsari Girls Boarding School in Navsari, India, as the organization’s first project in 2014. Upon their first visit, the team was moved by sights of the girls sleeping and eating on clay or mud floors with little protection from storms, lack of sufficient food supply and basic hygiene needs.
By late 2015, Siksha Foundation completed the renovation at the Navsari Girls Boarding School, including constructing new school and living quarters buildings with concrete floors, adding storage areas, providing new beds and bedding, wash facilities, solar water heaters, desks and computers for accelerated learning, and new kitchen tools.
