School to School Initiative: 

Every child deserves the joy of learning. Yet for many children, access to basics like notebooks, pencils, or safe classrooms isn’t always within reach. In times of climate emergencies, when families are coping with challenges around food, health, and well-being, education often takes a backseat.

Goonj’s School to School initiative transforms urban surplus into resources that bridge educational gaps and create safe joyful spaces for children in rural areas involving parents, teachers and villagers. Our holistic approach goes beyond material channelisation. Communities come together for infrastructure improvements, kitchen gardens, library spaces, sanitation facilities, and nutrition programs – creating comprehensive learning environments. In the end, children are rewarded with school kits containing essential learning tools.

For Children in Urban Areas:

• Practice mindful sharing and resource consciousness
• Behavioral change - Build empathy as part of everyday school life
• Connect meaningfully with peers in rural schools
• Learn sustainable living practices

For Children in Rural Areas:

• Fulfill basic education needs with dignity and respect
• Behavioral change - Experience a sense of achievement rather than receiving charity
• Improve attendance, hygiene practices, and community participation
• Engage parents, teachers, and villagers in holistic development including access, nutrition, sanitation, and more

This Year’s Goal

• Reach 10,000+ children in rural areas with school kits crafted by the women of Goonj
