Malabar Group,a jewellery retailer, organised Children’s Day activities at its 1531 Micro Learning Centres (MLCs) across India. The celebrations were held for sixty thousand children supported by the centres and were led across the network of MLCs by senior representatives and community dignitaries. The programmes began with the distribution of sweets and set the tone for a day dedicated to learning, inclusion and care.
The MLCs support underprivileged children who were forced into labour or had to drop out of school due to social and economic challenges. Each centre provides one year of age-appropriate primary education and helps children transition back to formal schooling.
Parents, local leaders, police and health department officials, and Malabar Group teams took part in the celebrations at the centres. Children engaged in learning activities and interactive sessions designed to encourage participation and confidence building.
The centres also provide nutrition support, offering milk, fruits, and eggs as part of the daily routine to help children learn with better concentration. Trained graduates from local communities serve as teachers, following a ratio of one teacher to forty children. So far, about thirty thousand children have been brought back to formal education through these centres.
Speaking on the occasion, Malabar Group Chairman MP Ahammed said that the initiative connects two essential needs for children nourishment and learning. “A child learns better when they feel secure and cared for. Nutrition strengthens their ability to study, education gives them direction, and together they help shape a future where each child can support themselves with dignity. Our Micro Learning Centres reflect this belief and form an important part of our wider CSR commitments,” he said. The centres operate under the Group’s Hunger Free World initiative, which distributes one lakh five thousand food packets daily in India and also supports communities in Zambia and Ethiopia.
