From there, its services have expanded to include: managing and sustaining natural resources, developmental vocational activities, rehabilitation for the physically/mentally impaired, abuse counseling, health awareness and social justice assistance among others. With its beginnings in the villages of Himachal Pradesh seated at the foothills of the Himalayas, CORD has now broadened its reach to serve 700 rural remote villages across India. Based upon its numerous recognitions by the Indian government, all income generated by Elmhurst Indian-American Association will have CORD as part of its Effective Altruism portifolio. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6039a8257b5f487d2f75b7b0/1614480398993-9R9GYW41CPHJQ7BBLTGN/ekal+vid.jpg Effective Altruism - Ekal Vidyalala Ekal Vidyalala’s mission is to educate every child in India by bringing one teacher to its remotest villages. The philosophy has since expanded to include holistic development of villages through empowerment of tribal and rural communities in India with digital literacy, skill development, health awareness, gender equality and learning modern agricultural practices and rural entrepreneurship. It now has over 102,000 schools and is one of the most effective NGO’s in India. Novel ideas by members of the Ekal Chicago Chapter have been successfully implemented within India owing to its open minded inclusive approach and overall transparency. As such, all income generated by Elmhurst Indian-American Association will have Ekal Vidyalaya as part of its Effective Altruism portifolio. https://elmhurstindian-americanassociation.com/heritage daily 0.75 2022-04-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6039a8257b5f487d2f75b7b0/1614481079089-8NCMLB9F84GWKVBA04I1/cmc.jpg Heritage https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6039a8257b5f487d2f75b7b0/ea13dfba-6a6b-45db-a11b-172cc0c6ce2b/EIAA+Language+Class.jpg https://elmhurstindian-americanassociation.com/sponsorship daily 0.75 2021-03-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6039a8257b5f487d2f75b7b0/1615282884649-RJIQ2JADGXPVC436INQ7/sponsor.png Sponsorship
