While all the programmes of GSS were going on beneficially to the rural community in a smooth way, a Child Labour Eradication Proposal was submitted by us to a foreign agency and this proposal had been duly accepted and readily approved by the Foreign Donor SKIP-Switzerland considering the valuable credits earned by our organization in the previous years. This financial assistance was allocated to implement the project entitled "Education and Rehabilitation of Working Children in the Interior Villages of Annavasal and Viralimalai Blocks of Pudukkottai District, Tamil Nadu", during the years from 2001 to 2004. 

This project was drafted properly by our project expert Mr. Gopinath, who rendered an yeomen service for the growth and development of our GSS. After studying this valuable project proposal in a deep way, our Country Representative for the SKIP, Mrs. Sherly Mathew and the Project Director of SKIP for India programmes, Mrs. Francoise Genode, Switzerland had given their valuable guidance and technical support to GSS for the effective and efficient implementation of the project.

The total project period was 4 years. As our GSS wished to make use of this golden opportunity in a proper way, it decided to run 15 Child Labour Schools and 15 Supplementary Education Centres in selected 15 villages of Viralimalai and Annavasal Blocks in Pudukkottai District so that the educational needs of the area might be considerably fulfilled.
