Abstract

A nation's progress depends upon a skilled workforce, which can be obtained when the present generation gets education and the proper guidance. A considerable part of the country is at a halt, leaving the poor without a way to earn a living, which directly hits children's education too. The situation is exacerbated by the fact that most youngsters cannot afford to pay for the new normal of online education, which is out of the grasp of the majority of people. Therefore, the paper aims to find out the different stakeholders' innovative ideas, i.e., companies, NGOs, and governments, as their CSR activity to cater to the students during the COVID-19 phase, when the schools were closed for several months. Another area highlighted in the paper is the problems faced by the students during COVID-19 phase. The funding of the CSR companies, particularly in education is highlighted too.
