Project: Rural Education - A “Dream come True” Project

  IIPM proudly announces that it’s CEO Mr. Ari’s 3-year project has become a “Dream come True” endeavor. His vision of making his High school into a Higher Secondary school to avoid hundreds of young students going to the near-by town (Karur) commuting nearly 16 km (Up & Down) daily to attend Higher Secondary education has come to reality on 16th June’08 after a long wait of nearly 25-years. It is indeed a moment of great joy and pride for socially and professionally responsible executives of this society. The Tamilnadu Government issued the necessary Orders to upgrade the existing High School (up to Xth std) to Higher Secondary School (up to XIIth std) on 16th June 2008.

  IIPM’s CEO Mr. O. Arivazhagan, BE(Hons), CSSBB., PMP., after his return from US/Middle East visited his native village in the year 2005 and was astonished to see the school where he studied still in high school grade only even after 30 yrs. He plunged immediately into action by gathering the village chiefs, old students and PTA office- bearers and brainstormed ideas for upgrading to XIIth std. It was informed that non- availability of a separate dedicated play ground was the main reason for the government not enhancing the school status and it was informed that it would cost about Rs. 2,00,000 to purchase
2-acres of land for making play ground for the school and there was no fund available for purchasing the land. Knowing this, Mr. Ari donated up to Rs. 1,00,000 (US$ 2500) in stages to partly finance the purchase of the necessary 2-acre land for the school play ground.

  The following continuous monitoring and initiatives were taken to bring the vision to reality,

  1. Identification of the problem and the necessary land area.

  2. Forming Old Students Association and electing office bearers (was elected as a Chairman of association).

  3. Donation of Rs. 1,00,000 (US$ 2500) towards purchase of the land for the play ground.

  4. Regular visit to the village/school (which is nearly 450 km away from Chennai) to motivate the local community and the students as well.

  5. Deliver motivational speeches to the school students and deliver prizes to the top three rank holders every year in the last 3 years.

  6. Continuous monitoring and follow up with local community for pursuing the matter with the government and local MLAs / Ministers.

  7. Development of a 2-acre barren land into a usable playground for the students by continuous cleaning-up and monitoring.

  8. Follow up with the Government Heads from the Education ministry along with the PTA office-bearers.

  9. Obtaining the necessary sanction order for enhancing the school grade from High School to Higher Secondary School.

    Thus, a 30-year need of surrounding villages (about 15 villages) and about 15,000 families has been fulfilled in just 3-years of action.

  IIPM CEO Mr. O. Arivazhagan, BE(Hons), CSSBB., PMP., thanks personally the following stakeholders for their contribution towards this social project achievement,

  1. Tamilnadu Government and the Ministry and officials.

  2. PTA Office bearers especially Mr. P. Viswanathan, Mr. Kandaswamy, Mr. Jesu Patham (School Head Master),
