Saving Children on India's Dangerous Roads

Greetings from SaveLIFE Foundation! I hope to reach you in good health and spirit. Thank you for supporting our project, ‘Safe SURE Walk to School’ initiative in India.

Peniel School in Bangalore, India, one of the schools selected under this project has seen success post intervention creating safe and secure access to education. It was made sure that the intervention is safe, secure, and educational for children before implementing, and was monitored and evaluated for 30 days after implementation. The following key impacts were observed at and around the school zone by the team, in comparison to before the intervention,

1. Students felt safer while crossing the junction to school and they have adequate moving space across the junction.
2. Interactive way-finding and signages guided the users to cross the road safely.
3. It helped motorists to be pre-informed about the school zone ahead and helped in the reduction of vehicular speed near the school.

The results exhibit an overall positive correlation between the user-behavior and the present intervention at the Peniel school.

The above project was a success with your endless support and gifts. A huge shout-out to all of you from me and my team! Thank you.
