“Remember that mentor leadership is all about serving. Jesus said, “For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many” (Mark 10:45).”

Mentor’s Club -

They say catch them young but we say” mentor them young”.

The Thought -

Imagine your child getting a mentor like Dr A P J Abdul Kalam if he has an aptitude for science.
Imagine your child getting a mentor like P T Usha if he is a sports prodigy.
Imagine your child getting a mentor like K J Yesudas if he has got a good voice.
Imagine your child getting a mentor like Arundahti Roy if she has the skill to become a wordsmith.
Imagine your child getting a mentor like Ms KiranBedi IPS if he has some administrative skills.

The above imaginations are possible if you look around and utilize the bundle of mentorship pool available locally.

Cinderella story makes govt girls school envy of Kerala!!

government girls school in Kerala, patronised mostly by students
from poor families seeking free education, has established excellent
standards and become the envy of other institutions in the state,

thanks to an unlikely group of benefactors — a CPM MLA, a Dubai-based NRI businessman, IIM-Kozhikode, ISRO and Infosys.

From the days of weather-beaten buildings and less than a dozen toilets for 2,300 girls, the Government Vocational Higher Secondary School in Nadakkavu in Kozhikode has seen its student strength rise and is aiming to become one of the 10 best schools in the country while several government schools in Kerala have either closed down or been categorised unviable after students preferred private institutions.
The transformation has its roots in a programme called Promote Regional Schools to International Standards through Multiple Intervention (PRISM) launched by Kozhikode's CPM MLA Pradeep Kumar."Since I became a legislator in 2006, parents in my constituency were seeking my recommendation for their children's admission in leading private schools in the city. This forced me to think about improving facilities at government schools, which have the best teachers recruited on merit basis. If IIMs and IITs are the best in their categories, why can't a government school excel,'' Kumar said.
While the MLA has given the school Rs 5.5 crore from his local area development fund since 2008, Dubai-based businessman K E Faizal, through his Faizal and Shabana Foundation, has donated Rs 15 crore to modernise infrastructure.Together, the funds helped develop state-of-the-art school buildings - including a new block built under the guidance of Scottish architect William Cooper - an indoor stadium with three basketball courts, hockey ground with astro turf, football and badminton courts, a dining hall with 2,000 seating capacity, atrium, gymnasium, heritage zone, science lab and a library with 25,000 books.
The PRISM concept was shared with Prof Saji Gopinath of IIM-
Kozhikode, who roped in a social service group of the institute to prepare a project report. Subsequently, the state education
department recognised PRISM as a model project for the overall
development of government schools.

Badshah of Bastar
Dharampal Saini, a disciple of the venerable Gandhian Vinoba Bhave.

“It was the dream of Vinobaji to educate the adivasis of Bastar. That is why I asked him to start an ashram here, in the name of his mother, Mata Rukmini Bhave. His initial reluctance was to test my patience,” said Saini, who is now affectionately called tauji (uncle).
