The Walkaroo group of companies has undertaken a variety of initiatives in the fields of education, empowerment, and infrastructure development with the purpose of fostering socio economic upliftment. The Group has been contributing meaningfully to nourish infrastructure at the Government Higher Secondary School, Chettipalayam, and the Panchayat Union Primary school, Chettipalayam, under the CSR fund. In the first phase, the group assisted GHSS, Chettipalayam, in setting up a modern sanitary system.
The work involved toilet renovation, and extensive plumbing repairs in both the girls’ and boys' washrooms. “We are very happy to see children attend school regularly now. Earlier there was a problem with water shortage and with no running water in the toilets, children found it difficult to use the restrooms. Girls had problems with sanitary issues too.
We have taken care of the infrastructure and made it very convenient for the students.” Mr. VKC Noushad, Managing Director, Walkaroo Group of Companies said. The group provided desk and benches to both the schools.The Walkaroo group has also undertaken a project to digitally enhance the library in GHSS, Chettipalayam.
The objectives of the project include inculcating reading habits, improving vocabulary and developing communication skills of students. The Group intends to extend this project to other government schools across India.
