CSR activities:
- Philosophy-In order to coordinate these diverse activities and bring them to a common platform, AIS decided that all such measures should be coalesced to a common platform � Integrated Community Development Program (ICDP). AIS ICDP is being administered and monitored by Youthreach � a Delhi based NGO.The enunciated goal of ICDP has been to enhance the quality of life in the community by providing services enabling �community participation and leadership� towards mobilising government, community and all other entities that are critical towards achieving this goal. 2007-08, being the last year for implementation of phase 2 of ICDP (Phase 1 covered a period of 2004-06), continued targeting two areas for intervention and development each at Rewari and Roorkee �Education� and �Water & Sanitation� in Rewari and �Vocational Training� and �Enterprise Development� in Roorkee.
- Water supply and sanitation-. Under the water & sanitation program being carried out in 60 villages around Rewari, awareness covering the rainwater harvesting, recycling, managing waste water, water saving cropping pattern building and low-cost sanitation facilities were imparted. Water & sanitation issues are better dealt with at a community level, for which community mobilisation is important. ICDP initiatives during the year focused on community mobilisation for participatory planning in villages through women�s groups. During 2007-08 study tours for villagers were also conducted to Churu in Rajasthan to better understand the success of rain water harvesting.
- Education-The education programs primarily focus on two areas � transportation of school children (especially the girl child) and establishing and running education centres (�AIS Unnati Centres�) for the school drop-out children.School drop-out rates in this area is high among girl children due to lack of safe local transportation. The school bus program of AIS, started in 2004, continues to enable 475 girl children from about 34 villages to commute from Rewari to their Senior Secondary School in Bawal.Two �AIS Unnati Centres� covering about 58 children are run in Mohammadpur & Kheramurar which enables the youth, especially girls who have dropped out of school to continue education. Out of the above, 17 children appeared for class X examinations through the �open school�. Vocational training has been provided to more than 130 boys and 62 girls. Boys were trained in computer skills and the girls in beauty culture. 20 girls have also been referred to tailoring courses. Among those trained, 27 girls have already set up their own enterprises on a full-time or part-time basis and 11 boys have been gainfully employed. To enable these youth to set up their businesses, enterprise management training is also being imparted.
