July is a very important month for SYMA - our Educational Aid function, is slated to be held on 9th July 2016 at Triplicane. The exact venue, Chief Guest and related details will be updated.
Srinivas Youngmen's Association popularly (SYMA) has been rendering social service from 1977. We are registered with the Registrar of Societies. With care and concern for the society, we have been actively involved in social service doing multifarious activities which include – coordination with civic authorities in keeping the environ clean, conducting health campaigns – promoting health care and hygiene; organizing Eye Camps, Blood Camps and other camps. In our earnest effort to improve the competitive spirit and to instill confidence in school children, We have been conducting Child Fest every year in which more than 4000 students from around 100 city schools participate. With a focus on sustainable service, we have two bigger continuing projects :
1) Medical Centre and Laboratory run for the poor wherein free consultation and medicines are provided – popularly known as ரெண்டு ரூபா ஆஸ்பிடல்[Rs. 2 hospital !] This functions between 5 – 7 pm on all days except Sundays and National holidays. Consultation is free and medicines too – provided through regular medical shops with whom we have working arrangement. Around 40 – 50 people utilize this daily. We also have a Medical lab wherein blood and other tests are done at very nominal costs. The running of Medical Centre and Lab costs around Rs.25000/- per month. 2) SYMA Growth – a purposeful special tuition center for coaching poor students of 10th and 12th standards, running since 2008 and producing good results year after year. This year we have X Std English medium [2 sections]; X Tamil medium; + 2 Science Group and +2 Commerce Group. We are mulling opening another Section in X Eng due to heavy demand. Altogether, every year, we educate around 130 students selected from weaker sections of the society. Through this project we aim to provide quality educational support to students who would otherwise will have no opportunity to such quality education. Education is imparted through qualified senior teaching professionals who are paid nominal fees by us. Classes are conducted on all days of the week. We have created an excellent infrastructure and have dedicated staff for this. The classes are conducted at the premises of National Boys High School, Triplicane for which we pay a nominal rent and some amount towards electricity and other expenses. The project expenditure of our Tuition center is around Rs. 5 lakhs per year, which for the Educational year 2016-17 is sponsored by ManpowerGroup, to whom, we express our deep gratitude.
In the Educational Aid
Function slated in July 2016, we will provide more than 1000 sets of unstitched uniforms to poor
