From Chalkboards to Laptops, Pavi is Uplifting Schools in Rural Kodagu

Education is the foundation of progress, and in the lush hills of Kodagu, it’s also the key to unlocking untapped potential. Yet, for many under-resourced schools in the region, the path to progress is paved with challenges—from crumbling infrastructure to limited access to technology. This is where Pavi steps in. Through our Adopt a School Program, we’re transforming rural schools into hubs of opportunity, ensuring every child has the resources they need to dream big and achieve even bigger. 

What’s the True Cost of a Crumbling Classroom? 

Imagine stepping into a classroom where the roof leaks during monsoons, the desks wobble, and access to clean drinking water is a daily struggle. For many students in rural Kodagu, this isn’t just a picture—it’s their reality. These conditions create barriers to effective learning, leading to frustration, absenteeism, and untapped potential. Pavi’s Adopt a school program takes on this challenge head-on. By focusing on school refurbishment, we’re providing sturdy roofs, functional desks, and safe sanitation facilities. Because no child should have to choose between their safety

and their education. 

Bringing the Digital World to Rural Schools 

In today’s world, digital literacy isn’t optional—it’s essential. Yet, many schools in Kodagu still operate without even basic technology. Through our Computer Lab Setup initiative, Pavi has brought modern equipment, internet access, and IT training to schools in need. This isn’t just about teaching students how to use a keyboard; it’s about opening a world of information and opportunities. For a child in Kodagu, learning to code or explore online resources could be the first step toward becoming a changemaker in their community. 

The Heart of Education—Supporting Teachers 

Schools are more than buildings—they are made up of people, and teachers are at the heart of it all. However, underfunded schools often struggle to retain quality educators due to low pay and a lack of resources. Pavi’s Honorarium Support initiative ensures that teachers are adequately compensated for their dedication. By empowering educators, we’re not just filling classrooms—we’re filling them with hope, inspiration, and knowledge that shapes young minds. 

How Community Collaboration Makes a Difference 

Our work doesn’t stop with infrastructure and technology—it’s about creating a ripple effect. The Adopt a school program thrives because of the local community’s involvement. From parents helping with school maintenance to volunteers hosting workshops, every small act of support builds a stronger foundation for the next generation. Together, we’re not just adopting schools; we’re adopting dreams, futures, and a commitment to Kodagu’s growth. 

A Promise worth 100 struggles. 

At Pavi, we believe that education is the greatest equalizer.

Our Adopt a school program is more

than a series of initiatives—it’s a promise to every child in Kodagu that their dreams matter. From repairing classrooms to introducing digital tools and supporting educators, we’re building schools that empower. Join us in this journey to create brighter futures—because when a child learns, a community thrives.
