The 'Dhruva' project, jointly organized by Kudumbashree & HLL Lifecare for children in indigenous areas in Thirunelly and Noolpuzha panchayats of Wayanad district, has concluded successfully. The project was implemented for 12 holidays from 30 November 2024, involving 104 selected children who are members of the Balasabha and Bridge Course, which are part of the Tribal Comprehensive Development Project implemented by Kudumbashree in these panchayats.
The aim of the project was to create confidence in adolescents to achieve success in life by developing educational thinking, sports resistance, self-confidence and a sense of purpose through life skills development. Football, one of the most popular sports preferred by children, was selected and given expert training and an opportunity to play, through which they were observed, analyzed and linked to various concepts, thereby shaping the development of life skills in children.
The project, which was carried out by HLL Management Academy (HMA) in collaboration with Kudumbashree with the CSR fund of HLL Lifecare Limited, culminated on 28 December 2024 with friendly football matches.
