ODOC Team Reaches New Century High School
On 17th June 2025, the One Dollar One Child (ODOC) team visited New Century High School in Chennai as part of their ongoing outreach and awareness initiative. The objective of the visit was to introduce the ODOC Project Awareness, a school-based health program that addresses child malnutrition through Spirulina supplementation.
Discussion with School Leadership
Meeting with the Assistant Headmistress
During the visit, the ODOC team met with the school’s Assistant Headmistress and presented a detailed overview of the project. The discussion covered the program’s objectives, methodology, and the positive health outcomes observed in students from other schools already participating in the initiative.
The Assistant Headmistress expressed appreciation for the project’s purpose and acknowledged the value it could bring to their student community, especially in enhancing overall health and nutritional status.
Principal’s Approval Required: ODOC PROJECT AWARENESS
Despite the positive response, the Assistant Headmistress informed the ODOC team that final approval for project implementation rests with the school’s Principal. She recommended that a follow-up meeting be arranged once the Principal is available, so that the proposal can be reviewed at the appropriate level of authority.
Follow-Up Planning Underway
The ODOC team will coordinate with the school to schedule a follow-up visit, ensuring that all required information is available to facilitate a decision. Once the meeting with the Principal takes place, the project proposal will be reviewed formally, paving the way for potential implementation.
Conclusion: Progressing Toward Partnership
The visit to New Century High School represents another meaningful connection in the ODOC Project’s mission to expand access to nutritional support in schools. The positive initial response from school leadership offers hope for a future partnership aimed at tackling malnutrition and improving student health.
The ODOC team looks forward to engaging further with the school to take the next steps in bringing the benefits of Spirulina supplementation to its students.
