The flagship programme of Jireh Ministries’ education programme is Adoni Public School which is situated in Daspur, a remote village in the district of Kalahandi, Odisha. Adoni Public School provides English Medium education at a subsidised fees to children in this economically backward and rural area. Since a large per cent of children come from Below Poverty Line (BPL) and poor background, we charge a very nominal fee for their participation and ownership. The rest of the needs are met by Jireh Ministries. In fact, many children, who are really poor also get completely free education through 100% scholarship. We desire to upgrade the school to college by adding one higher class every year. Our aim is to help the underprivileged children to achieve their goals in life. The programme primarily works with underprivileged and deserving students by giving them English Medium education at an affordable fees. The school also provides after-school coaching support to students of higher classes which run in the evenings and mornings.

 

Mostly, the parents of these children are labourers, farmers, and domestic helps and are unable to support the educational needs of their children. The inability of parents to guide their children coupled with their illiteracy adds to the poor performance in their studies. But due to the intervention of Jireh Ministries through Adoni Public School, the children of Daspur village and other nearby villages have been able to afford

good education and excel in life.
