Congratulations & best wishes to Pathshala team lead by Maya Shintre. I know how Maya used to gather all parents to counsel them to send kids to Pathshala. Even though it’s free, they were not ready to send kids. But she used to sit for hours in an area near their homes and that is how Pathshala was founded . Pathshala not only gives free education to kids but also pays their school fees, books, school bags etc. Started from few students now it's around 120 students from grade 3 to grade 10. With dedicated management, teachers and staff. I really appreciate their efforts for overall, great upbringing of each child.

They bring innovative ideas to encourage students in extra curricular activities like english speaking, self hygiene, competitive examination, Sanskar Varg etc. To imbibe a sense of responsibility and helping attitude in children, Pathshala sent their 10th grade students for writing exam papers for visually impaired students. My best wishes are always with you to continue with your vision for upliftment and empowerment of children.
