One of them is a public school, while the others are private alternative schools (one in Odemira area and the other in Uruguay). At Atman Festival, we are committed to supporting these educational institutions by implementing alternative projects and providing them with essential materials and supplies. Our aim is to contribute to the holistic development of the students and create a positive impact on their educational journey. Through these initiatives, we hope to foster a love for learning, creativity, and personal growth among the students, ultimately building a brighter future for the community.
