EDUCATIONAL ASSISTANCE

This was the 1st year of Kartavya's educational initiative. We selected just 11 students from villages of Partur taluka - Dolhara, Babultara, KavJawala, Masala. Being very first year, our Founder-President Mr. Shyam Wadhekar visited that every school to personally reach up to those student and make them understand what is this all about.

In 2008, we again selected 19 students from villages - Dolhara, Babultara, KavJawala, Masala, Nandra, Waraphalwadi, Amba. This time as well went into each of that school, met students and teachers to under how to further improve this education aid. Through those discussion we understood the importance of competitive exams like Scholarship and Navodaya Vidyalaya, and hence we decided to provide 4th, 5th and 7th standard candidates with preparatory books.

In 2009, we selected 22 students from villages - Dolhara, Babultara, KavJawala, Masala, Nandra, Waraphalwadi, Sevaga and Daithana. But this time instead of going at their individual school, we gathered all those students along with their teacher, parents at one common place - School of Shevaga village.

For this event we also invited 'Shikshan Sabhapati' of Jalna Zilha Parishad, with an intention to make them aware of problems there in village schools.

In 2010 we supported the education of total 26 children from villages in Partur taluka. The accessories distribution event was organized at village Shevaga.

In 2011 the Kartavya supported education of total 32 children from villages in Partur taluka. The accessories distribution event was organized at village Shevaga.

In 5th year of Kartavya's educational initiative total 57 students from 11 villages have received educational aid from Kartvya Foundation. In addition to regular educational assistance, total 5 students who passed with high score in 10th have received a motivational cash prize.

The annual meet and accessories distribution event was organized for the time in Dolhara, the village of Kartavya's founder president.

With 6 years of tireless work, In 2013 Kartavya was successful in getting support from larger audience. Increased funding made it possible for us to cover more number of students - total 91. For the first time BEO (Block Education Officer) of Partur Mr. Raj Londhe attended our annual event and from there Kartavya has started receiving support from local Government authorities.

The annual meet and accessories distribution event was organized at Daithana village, where Kartavya's secretary Shri. Sakharam Mujmule is working as a headmaster.

It was 7th year of Kartavya's educational initiative and this time we provided educational assistance to 115 children selected from all over Jalna district. The beneficiary student list prominently includes orphan, single parent, physically challenged kids or kids from poor farmer/labour family.

The accessories distribution event was organized in Partur. The Superintendent of Police Jalna Srmt. Jyotipriya Singh was the Chief-Guest of this event and having support from such a eminent personality gave much credibility to Kartavya's social work. Additionally Shri. Arvind Lokhande (SDM), Shri. Rajesh Londhe where also present there for the event. Career Counselor Mr. Vinayak Panse from Pune had been called to guide students to guide students from career selection point of view.

Until this time Kartavya was a small team known only within Partur taluka. Indeed it was Honorable Superintendent of Police Srmt. Jyotipriya Singh whose presence in 2014 annual event has helped Kartavya to make everyone believe that Kartavya is doing something remarkable and that is why an IPS officer is supporting them. It truly made Kartavya to be recognized at wider level and there after it never turned back.

In Jun2013 Shri. Raj Londhe (BEO) insisted us for a visit to Kasturba Gandhi Vidyalaya at village Amba Tq. Partur. It is a government hostel+school especially for around 150 orphan and other poor family girls from surrounding villages. There, During discussions with those girls we realized that the drinking water being supplied to them is very hard (non-purified) and it was the cause of frequent health problems of all girls there. Having it known, later in Jun 2014 we built a complete set up a automatic RO+UV Water Purification System (expenditure approximately Rs. 75,000/-) for that school.

At the end of 2014 we undertook an initiative named Mission Save Farmer and visited more than 50 suicide committed farmer's families in 8 districts of Marathwada region. As part of that initiative we assured those families to support education of their children. This Mission Save Farmer initiative has really made us familiar among people in Marathwada and surrounding region, including Hon. Shri. Sambhaji Chatrapati (Kolhapur) who then proactively extended his support for this noble cause.

On 27th Jun 2015, the annual meet and accessories distribution event was organized in presence of Hon. Shri. Sambhaji Chatrapati as Chief-Guest, along with SDM Shri. Arvind Lokhande, Tehsildar Shri.
