Child Education Development

Child Education Development (CED) is a Christian Non-Profit Organization working close with Governmental Ministries and Institutions with the help of well-wishers and friends locally and internationally for the betterment of the less-privileged and vulnerable children and families in Sri Lanka. CED works mainly in the fields of education both in formal & non-formal providing help & support in formal education providing teachers and resources in teaching English and Information Technology, conducting afterschool additional support in Maths, native languages, English language and Information Technology where there are no resources available like in the city schools & colleges. In the area of non-formal education CED support in building to provide adequate space in school class rooms, training teachers, giving scholarships for higher education, establishing libraries and play centers in schools, conducting literacy and post literacy classes. Further, CED conducts awareness programs for the uneducated families of the children in our educational support & care. We conduct awareness programs & seminars on child sexual abuse in the North Central Province. Also conducting awareness programs and counseling sessions for depressed families and parents. The rate of committing suicide, child sexual abuse in this area is on top of the list in Sri Lanka. Due to poverty, un-education, not knowing how to handle stress, the innocent parents commit suicide and the under aged children become vulnerable and destitute. Their future goes blank and deleted over a night. CED has recognized these situations and needs of the community in this area. So, one of the main focus has been to conduct awareness programs and counseling for the parents and adults has been very effective. Already we have been recognized as effective, efficient and result oriented by the community which is a golden encouragement for CED to be more energetic and march forward to carry out our vision & mission.
