Bengaluru : EuroSchool
HSR, part of EuroSchool, one of India's leading K–12 school networks, has been
honoured with the Mother Teresa Memorial Award for Excellence in Humanitarian
Services for its commitment to holistic education and student-led community
impact. The recognition acknowledges the school's collaboration with the Indian
Development Foundation (IDF), through which students have participated in
initiatives promoting education, dignity, empathy, and social responsibility
while creating meaningful change in underserved communities.
During the academic year 2025–26, the EuroSchool
HSR community comprising students, parents, and educators collectively raised
over ₹4 lakh towards Aashayein, Project Dignity, and Cover of
Compassion, supporting causes focused on education, menstrual health, and
elderly care. These efforts provided students with opportunities to engage with
real-world social challenges, fostering inclusivity, civic engagement, and
social awareness
As part of Aashayein, EuroSchool HSR
students visited YAS National High School, Subramanyapura, where they
personally distributed 210 educational kits containing school bags,
notebooks, stationery, geometry boxes, and water bottles to underprivileged
students. Through Project Dignity, students helped distribute 115
menstrual hygiene kits, benefiting adolescent girls from economically
weaker sections, including a total of 4,600 sanitary pads aimed at
promoting menstrual health awareness and dignity. The school's third
initiative, Cover of Compassion, which will support senior citizens
residing in old-age homes through blanket distribution, is scheduled for
September 2026.
Alongside the school's recognition, Ms Kavitha
Neelayath, Principal, EuroSchool HSR, was honoured by the Indian Development
Foundation for her exemplary leadership in promoting community service and
social responsibility within the school ecosystem.
The recognition reflects EuroSchool HSR's broader
vision of delivering holistic education that extends beyond academic
excellence. By combining classroom learning with real-world experiences, the
school seeks to nurture well-rounded individuals who are equipped with not only
knowledge and skills, but also strong values and a commitment to creating
positive change.
Speaking about the recognition, Ms Kavitha
Neelayath, Principal, EuroSchool HSR, said, "At EuroSchool HSR, we
believe that education should empower students not only to excel academically
but also to become compassionate and responsible members of society. Our
collaboration with the Indian Development Foundation has enabled students to
participate in initiatives that create meaningful impact while instilling
values of empathy, dignity, and service. We are deeply honoured to receive the
Mother Teresa Memorial Award, and this recognition inspires us to further
strengthen our efforts towards nurturing socially conscious and responsible
future leaders
Through initiatives such as Aashayein, Project
Dignity, and Cover of Compassion, EuroSchool HSR continues to champion
values-based education, encouraging students to lead with empathy,
responsibility, and a commitment to positive social change.
