Tribal School
Mamillabanda village, Chintoor Mandal (Rural), Andhra Pradesh,India
We are privileged to adopt and develop a tribal boarding bridge school, located in the remote forest area on the Hill tops of Yedugurallapalli, Chintoor Mandal, Andhra Pradesh. These tribal hamlets are devoid of basic needs like transportation, electricity, water, sanitation, health care and education. Only mode of transportation is by rough terrain walk through the thick forest for over an hour to get to any basic needs. Tribals living here are leading substandard life and we believe that educatiuon has that transformative power to bring communities out of generational proverty to a life of dignity.
We have many goals to achieve to improve their lifestyle from substandards to normal basic living.

Tribal people especially children and women often suffer from frequent illness due to nutrition deficiency. Access to basic Primary Health care is a luxury. Pregnant women are often carried by helping shoulders for 50- 60 miles to reach nearby hospital and most of the times end up delivering baby before reaching the hospital in most unhygienic conditions.
Tribals living here doesn’t have access to fruits, vegetables and to any dairy products including Milk. Most of them are lost to Malarial fever as they don’t have access to basic health care. The average Blood Hemoglobin for the kids living here is at 6-7 vs 13. Though the kids are smart and intelligent they get easily sick with fevers and become prey to frequent Malaria/Dengue.
