Breaking Barriers: The Shilpayathra Project Empowers Rural Students with Free Education

The Shilpayathra project, led by the Leo club of Uva Wellassa University, offers free education and guidance to Ordinary Level students in rural areas of Badulla. These students, from low-income families, face limited access to educational resources and facilities, impacting their academic performance. The project includes seminars on difficult subjects, personalized counseling, and field trips to nearby universities. The project bridges the gap between rural and urban areas, increasing students' chances of success in exams. It indirectly benefits the families and communities of these students by improving their education and future prospects.
