aims and objectives of Udayan Shalini Fellowship Programme and Udayan Care are explained.
After the orientation programme, she is inducted formally into the programme in a glittering
ceremony. She is administered the oath by some
eminent personality.

In an Induction and Oath taking Ceremony, our Fellows are administered an

the recipients' commitment to the ideals by which this Fellowship stands. Along with the oath, the
Fellows are given the first installment of their Fellowship as well a
'Badge' their 'Badge of Honour
', of being an Udayan Shalini Fellow, which they wear throughout the day and for each function of the
programme with pride.
Throughout the year, there are Motivational
Workshops, to motivate girls towards a greater future for themselves and for the
nation. In the quarterly workshops the fellows are given three monthly installments of their scholarships
. Then there are fortnightly workshops too with smaller groups for closer interactions.
Once the Fellow is selected, if she is in school, she is
attached to a
Mentor.
Who interact with them and guide them to attain their goals.
The school girls once they reach college are graduated to the
role of Peer Mentors
and act as a bridge
between the school girls and the mentors.
The Fellows once
selected, are encouraged to give back to the society rather
than remaining just recipients of charity. This is done by
encouraging them to participate in the
Social Awareness Campaigns
conducted by us and by involving themselves in different
social servicing activities like teaching neighbourhood
children etc.,
While we encourage our Fellows in every possible way, they are subjected to regular evaluations on
their academic performance, their participation in other activities, their attendance and participation
in the workshops, their regularity in meeting with their mentors, as well as regularity in sending their
three monthly proforma
Once the student finishes her education,
the effort is to make her a member of the Alumni so that a relationship is
maintained.
