Community Service through Little Flower Extension (LIFE)
The adoption of Konampet, Sangareddy Dist, initiated by LIFE (Little Flower Extension) with the objective of improving:
After surveying a few villages, the college decided to adopt Konampet Village to focus on the socioeconomic condition prevailing in the village and to better the overall living conditions of the residents.
The adoption of a village plays a crucial role in improving students education in several ways:
Awareness was created in hygiene, school conditions, drinking water facility, and health issues faced by villagers.
Initial reluctance, resistance, and skepticism among villagers posed a significant challenge in gaining their trust. Limited involvement of village community members in the initial stages.
Funding for infrastructure projects, medical supplies for health camps, transportation for students, coordination with local authorities, and sustained community engagement efforts.
Recognising the need for digital transformation, LFMS has adopted technological advancements to enhance teaching and learning experience, streamline administrative processes and improve overall efficiency.
LFMS streamlines Admission, Attendance and Evaluation. It is an intranet and internet based application developed and maintained by a team of staff and students of LFDC.

Uninterrupted internet facility, updated systems, regular staff training, database management expertise, and continuous development and maintenance support.
