SUPPORT TO SCHOOLS KOVALAM, SENDIVAKKAM, K.G.KANDIGAI MAMBAKKAM & CHENNAI
In 2001 and in partnership with the Roman Catholic Church, the Cuomo Foundation launched a school development programme in Tamil Nadu, India. The objective of this vast project was to encourage the schooling of children and their basic education. This initiative goal was reached through construction of schools, renovation of existing buildings, granting operating costs and scholarships.
Initiated in the town of Kovalam, the programme extended to other regions in Tamil Nadu such as Sendivakkam, K.G. Kandigai, Mambakkam and to schools in the city of Chennai, the capital of Tamil Nadu. In 2018, the renovation works and financial support for the administration continued to ensure pupils a quality education in good conditions.
