Under the Integrated School Development Program, the WASH & Life Skills initiative is being implemented by CYDA Organization, in collaboration with Persistent Foundation.

As part of the Life Skills component, vocational training programs were successfully organized in three schools students of 8th and 9th standards, providing them with hands‑on exposure to essential skills such as Plumbing, Carpentry and Electrical work.

This initiative aims to empower students with practical, employability‑oriented skills, fostering self‑reliance and preparing them for future livelihood opportunities.

As part of the Integrated School Development Program, Bhagyalaxmi Health and Education Society conducted a comprehensive vision screening for students from Std. 1 to 12 at Bhide Girls High School, Sitabuldi. Out of the students screened, 31 students were diagnosed with refractive errors. In collaboration with Bhagyalaxmi Health and Education Society, Persistent Foundation supported these students by providing free spectacles, helping them see clearly and learn better. Together, we continue our commitment towards child health, education and brighter futures.

We were delighted to host a group of specially‑abled students from our Skill Development Project in collaboration with Sarthak Education Trust. Their visit to our office was truly inspiring for all of us.
The students explored our workplace through an engaging office tour, giving them their first real glimpse into how an IT company operates.

We also organized two insightful sessions for them: Interview preparation Tips and Connect with our Leader- Which was very intercative too.

For many of these students, this was a first‑time experience in a corporate setting. Seeing their excitement, curiosity, and confidence grow throughout the day made this event truly special.

A proud moment at the WASH Hackathon hosted at our Hyderabad office in collaboration with YOUTH FOR SEVA!

Our enthusiastic volunteers came together to create impactful awareness posters for school children on important topics such as:
