Girls in the C2C TechLab
At Commit-2-Change, we believe empowerment begins with access to quality education, guidance and mentorship. Nowhere is this more evident than in our partnership with Nimmagadda Anandamma Memorial (NAM) Girls School, operated by CSS in Telangana. Over the past year, C2C programs have supported approximately 400 girls from Grades 3–9 at NAM, with an impactful mix of classroom instruction, after-school sessions, and one-on-one counseling.
A Look Inside the Program
With a dedicated junior and senior Techlab tutor onsite and two additional senior remote teachers, students at NAM received over 1,400 hours of theoretical instruction and 520 hours of hands-on tech training per grade. Our programs spanned Vedic and Abacus Math, college and career counseling, and a full Techlab curriculum that included coding, robotics, and app development.
Thanks to our supporters, including Triveni Turbines, NAM’s 30-PC computer lab now boasts a dedicated 100Mbps broadband connection and a smart classroom solution (K-Yan), enabling our girls to access real-time, interactive digital learning.
Measurable Impact
· 100% of C2C Grade 10 girls are on track to pass their board exams this year.
· Enrollment at NAM increased by 30%.
· Girls built 50 microsites, created 4 mobile apps, and completed 65+ digital literacy practicals.
· C2C girls outperformed district averages on math and digital literacy benchmarks by over 50%.
· Soft skills flourished too: confidence up 50%, creativity 60%, problem-solving 65%, and coding skills by 54%.
· Higher Education: Over 98% of students have now enrolled in colleges and universities of decent stature, rather than dropping out or turning to short-term vocational tracks.
· 21st Century Jobs: One of our graduates was recently selected to work in the life sciences industry in Bangalore by Celegence, a leading US-based company, a testament to the real-world pathways C2C girls are accessing.
Also inspiring, we’re seeing more girls opt for STEM-related paths after Grade 10, with a 9% increase in non-medical track selection and a 5% bump in medical track interest.
Why It Matters
In a district where only 47% of government school students in Grades 3–5 can perform basic arithmetic, girls at NAM are doing mental math, mastering MS Office, and building tech projects that would make any engineer proud. This is the power of consistent support, capable teachers, and curriculum designed to ignite potential.
NAM Girls School is just one example of how our tailored interventions can create measurable, lasting change. With 13 other active partnerships across the region, the ripple effects are multiplying, and we’re just getting started. Stay tuned as we continue to share more stories from the field. Girls everywhere deserve the chance to control their futures, and together, we’re making that possible.
