Society for Community Development Project - SCDP

Sobre nosotros

Society for Community Development Project (SCDP) is a registered, non-profit making voluntary social action group promoted in 1990 by a band of social minded and dedicated youth hailing from the bottom of the rural society. They had clear insights of the socio-economic and health situation faced by the oppressed, underprivileged and marginalized segments of the rural communities in Panamarathupatty, Ayothiyapatinam and Yercaud Block of Salem District.

Our aim is to eradicate child labour. In doing this we hope to release child labourers from the employers and to enroll them in existing schools to continue their education. A child's right to education and the enjoyment of childhood are our motives.

Vision of SCDP:

Collective effort of the people with humanity in all respects. Developing alternative skills and techniques for improving standard of life and reduce poverty.
