Sponsoring kids for this nature camp

We India Literacy Project (ILP) conducted a 2 day nature and adventure camp for the our scholarship children at  Guru Freddy's Nature Awareness & Adventure Academy on the 23^rd and 24^th of October 2010.

Totally 47 children (In that 32 from Magadi and 15 from Yeshwanthpura, Bangalore Urban) and 7 staff and Volunteers  participated in the camp and took part in trekking (6 kms), cave exploration, rock climbing, rappling, river crossing and a variety of obstacle crossing exercises - including crossing an 8-feet wall, long jump, tarzan swing, tyre crossing, crawli...ng under a fence, etc. This was a life-skills workshop in real-life - where the children came face to face with fear, anxieties and other inhibitions, but overcome them through the above activities thereby developing courage, and boldness. At the end of the camp all the children enjoyed without fear and we observed some changes by participating in this activities. Guru Freddy’s instructors instructed very well & carefully all the activities and food also good.

We express our sincere thanks to for all donors and volunteers to your contributions, Chiguru and Paraspara Trust for their support and also ILP board members to initiate this program.
