PEH participates in Edufest held in Ahmedabad to create awareness educational awareness amongst students.
This gives an opportunity to students to attend seminars, workshops, motivational speeches and counselling sessions.
In 2019’s Edufest, PEH partnered with USI3DT, a US based company of printing technology, conducted workshops and created awareness of this revolutionary technology among students and parents.
The workshop was conducted were students on one-to-one basis got a chance to see the 3D printing process where three-dimensional objects can be made from computer-aided designs.
An open-ended question session at the end facilitated the students to solve their queries pertaining to this incredible technology which is gaining momentum across the globe.
Awareness of 3D printing technology in Schools
PEH has started a pilot program of creating awareness of 3D printing technology among the young students.
Inspired by the tremendous impetus and enthusiasm received at Edufest in Ahmedabad, PEH decided to conduct an awareness drive of 3D technology among the higher level school going children.
We have started our pilot study with New Age School in Maktampura, a suburb in Ahmedabad where we conducted a seminar with the 9th and 11th grade students.
Collaboration with School of Design and Weaving at Varanasi
The School of Design and Weaving at Varanasi offers a 3-year educational and training program in different aspects of textile designing and weaving.
PEH has joined hands in this initiative and donated five top-of-the-notch computers and a printer to this school.
The pilot project aims to sustain and nurture the heritage of fine hand weaving for children of artisans.
PEH is proud that it has made generous contributions in this pilot project.
It is a step towards reaching our aim of empowering students through education and training.
Fundraising Garage Sale
For the purpose of creating social awareness and inculcating the importance of community service in life, a group of students joined hands to do fundraising for PEH.
Garage sale is a new concept in India and these young college-going students motivated their near and dear ones to donate generously for a cause.
PEH plans to hold such fundraising garage sales every year which will be contribute to our empowerment project and simultaneously provide practical knowledge to our students.
This will also enhance our sustainable drive of re-using the products.
It's extremely important to know that all the sponsorship money collected, goes directly to fund the children's education and the related needs.
