Being away from the city population, villages on hills around Lavasa city lack a quality education system. Most villagers cannot afford to send their children to better schools in distant locations in Pune. Many parents are not very encouraging to their children for higher studies. Most of the girls have to stop studies after eighth grade as Marathi medium schools in the region do not have higher classes. There is one English medium school run by Lavasa authority for children from all villages. The huge young population here needs a lot more education facilities and quality teaching. <strong>Mahatman Foundation,</strong> being active in this region since doing food distribution during pandemic in 2020 did a second drive of notebooks and stationary distribution to students in Bhoini, Kolshi, Ramnagar, Dasve, Mugaon and Dhamnovhal villages yesterday. The School Kit had an assorted set of materials such as notebooks, pen, pencil, drawing book, colors, and compass box which varies as per the sections like primary, secondary, and higher secondary. The spark and excitement in the kids' eyes were noteworthy. A little good effort can become such great encouragement as a paradigm to bigger impacts on lives by community service.

In the words of Sudhir Adettiwar, the founder of the organization and a Geotech engineer and an entrepreneur, “It was through support of scholarships by organizations like Tata and Birla that I could complete my studies abroad and enjoy the success by hard work today. Hence it is important for people like me to keep up the legacy of such good work. Change the life, if you can, of at least one child for good.” Following the vision, the foundation also gave scholarship forms to support selected bright minds from underprivileged families for future studies. The aim is to empower every child through education. Mahatman foundation is a non-profit organization set up in 2020 with a vision to advance humanity to greatness by working in the field of education, mentorship, fitness and advanced scientific research.
