1. WATER REJUVENATION & SECURITY

Currently, many villages face severe water scarcity, poor water quality, and heavy reliance on tankers for drinking water. In 2022, NCRB data revealed that Maharashtra accounted for 38% of India’s agriculture-related suicides, the highest in the country. River revival efforts are essential to restore natural water flow, improve water quality, and support sustainable agricultural practices. 

What we do

  • We collaborate with villagers and water resource experts to clean, desilt, and unclog traditional water sources, restoring their natural flow and rejuvenating local water systems.
  • Our work also includes widening and deepening rivers and streams to enhance water retention and recharge groundwater. 
  • Alongside these restoration efforts, we engage with rural farmers to promote sustainable water management practices, ensuring that the positive impact of these interventions is maintained for the long term.

Impact

  • Over 20 villages are now drought free 
  • In multiple villages, villagers started farming regulary
  • In Pachegaon village, the temporary migration of families forced to work as sugarcane labourers has decreased dramatically from 69% to 22% in 2023.
  • 150+ Families resumed back to farming due to river revival

    2. QUALITY & HOLISTIC EDUCATION

    1 in every 4 schools in rural India lack lack basic infrastructure like drinking water, toilet. 9 lakh students don’t have safe schools to attend in Maharashtra. As of 2024, the educational scenario in rural Marathwada faces significant challenges. Around 60% of children in rural areas are enrolled in primary schools. The region struggles with a shortage of qualified teachers, with only 50% of teaching positions filled by trained educators. 

    What we do

    • We build and upgrade rural education facilities with clean amenities, digital tools, and inclusive learning environments. 
    • We also focus on holistic development programs through arts, music, crafts, and sports, nurturing creativity and self-expression. 

    Impact

    In our Pandhari school,

    • Attendance at the primary school increased from 67 children to over 100 children 
    • Rebuilt using eco-friendly materials (fly ash bricks and sun-dried mud bricks), creating a safer and more conducive learning environment. 
    • Enhanced facilities such as toilets, a staff room, a sports field with play equipment from recycled materials. 
    • The school serves as a community centre for development programms for villagers (women, farmers, health)

      3. HEALTHCARE & WELLBEING

      In rural Maharashtra, despite important advances in health infrastructure, many communities still face formidable barriers to accessing quality healthcare. Long distances, limited transport, understaffed health centres, and high out-of-pocket costs mean that many families delay or forego care.

      What we do

      • We conduct regular health awareness and preventive check-up camps in rural communities across Maharashtra.
      • Our goal is to educate and empower villagers with knowledge about hygiene, nutrition, maternal and child health, and common preventable diseases.

      Impact

      • Conducted over 8 health camps to raise awareness
