We can’t believe we’ve already made it through three months of 2021! We hope you’ve had a great start to the year and we’re excited to share updates from our initiatives!
Empowered Communication Program – Phase II
In March, we launched the second phase of our ‘Empowered Communication Program’ in collaboration with ‘Diksoochi for Persons with Disability’ (DPWD).
We’re working towards promoting social and career growth in 20 visually impaired students in the age group 18-30 through a specially designed course structure that focuses on improving English communication.
This collaboration is extremely close to our hearts!
Empowered Communication Mentorship Program Expansion
Earlier this year we completed the first round of our adult Mentorship Program with four wonderful individuals. We saw tremendous growth in their communication styles and are continuing to expand this initiative! In March, we started the second round of mentorship with 10+ students from ages 18-30. We look forward to building a strong community of mentors and mentees!
We recently interviewed three of our female students to celebrate ‘Women’s Month’ – check out the post at https://punelearns.org/blog/.
New Holistic Development Program
In February, we launched a ‘Holistic Development Program’ as part of our efforts to continually enhance social and emotional learning skills in our young students! Through an activity-based approach, we are covering a wide range of soft-skills such as problem solving, creative thinking, etc. Our pilot batch comprises 8 students and we can’t wait to induct more students!
