Candor TechSpace aims to improve educational capabilities

Gurugram: As part of its CSR initiative of Candor TechSpace, the leading provider of IT/ITES office spaces has adopted a Government Primary School in Tikri, Gurugram (Haryana) to develop its overall infrastructure and educational capabilities after signing an MOU with the government. The inauguration of the Phase-I Infrastructure development of the School took place on January 16, 2019 by Mr. Ravinder Yadav, Joint Commissioner-IV, Municipal Corporation of Gurugram- Haryana in the presence of Mr. Kuldeep Yadav - Councillor Ward-29-MCG and Mrs. Premlata Yadav- DEEO, Gurugram. The developmental work scheduled tobe carried out in phases.

In phase 1, Candor TechSpace is working towards to uplift the hygienic infrastructure of the school. We have already built new toilet block that comprise 3-4 separate toilets for both genders and one with a wheelchair ramp for differently abled students, a drinking water station (RO + water cooler), a utensil washing area and a proper drainage system which is covered and connected to the main sewage. Built as per the 'A' specifications, we have appointed a housekeeping company to maintain and manage the facility.

Sharing his insight on the initiative, Spokesperson of Candor TechSpace, said, "At Candor, we believe quality education is a fundamental right of children, regardless of their background or financial state. Unfortunately, there exists a huge gap between the quality of private schools and state-run public schools. We wanted to bridge this gap to some extent through this initiative. While the government is making relentless efforts, it's also the responsibility of large corporate entities to play their part."

He further added, "We have just finished building the toilet blocks and plastering the school's boundary wall. We have also roped in award winner Akshita &team from Rocks Artist for decorating the classrooms with meaningful wall arts that spread awareness about issues such as water scarcity, environmental sustainability and hazards of pollution. At present, we are looking to develop the landscape; such as equipping the school play area with swings and play equipment's" he added.

In the second phase of the project, Candor TechSpace looks to upgrade the classrooms with better facilities and a resource center in each class. The latest initiative of Candor further reaffirms its commitment towards the society.
