The First School in Adhorghat
Prior to Learn for Life Foundation's and Sunbird Trust's combined intervention, the students in the East Khalsi Hills did not have a school to attend, given the myriad difficulties presented by poor transportation infrastructure and severe weather. Workers carried aluminum and reinforced steel building materials manually to construct the first primary school serving the children of Adhorghat.
