The Auxilium School is located in the township of Pallurithy, in the city of Kochi and aims to assist disadvantaged children and orphans in the area. It was established in 1994 to provide education to children who come from low socio economic backgrounds and orphaned children in the area. There are currently 565 boys and girls who attend this school, for most of these children coming to school is a privilege as they are being given the opportunity to gain an education as apposed to having to go out and work to earn an income. In an attempt to reduce drop out rates the school has kept school fees to a bare minimum in order to encourage parents to continue sending their children to school. Despite this there are still many who are forced to leave school and find work to help their families financially.

By helping with funding for this project you will be contributing towards achieving the long term goals of this program, which is to aid struggling families financially so that they can continue to send their children to school to get a proper education. This will hopefully contribute to opportunities for better paid jobs for these children in the future, breaking the cycle of poverty in this community.
