Scholarship Distribution

How We Started

At the time when 'Swami Vivekanand Students Welfare Charitable Trust' was established in the year 1996, the fee in government schools was only 110 rupees. Despite this, every year 300 to 400 girl students were dropping out of school due to lack of money.

When Bhaiyaji examined this situation, he found that there were many families having five to six school going children and their father's livelihood was so meagre that he could not raise even 500-600 rupees at one go in the month of July. Consequently, the elder sisters had to drop school after their primary education. Bhaiyaji resolved that if any girl student from a government school fills the application form of the trust, she would continue to get scholarship for as long as she wishes to study. Lack of money shall not hinder her education. Bhaiyaji secured the future of all the needy girls of all Government schools of Jodhpur (Secondary and Senior Secondary) by providing them financial assistance, so that they could complete their education smoothly.

In the year 2000, the state government waived the school fee of all the girls of the government schools and also provided them free textbooks. However, the students from class IX to XII had to pay the computer and development fee. Since then, the trust adopts the needy girl students of classes IX to XII and reimburses their board fees along with computer and development fees.

Bhaiyaji realized that school education alone will not be not enough for the all-round development of girl students. So he founded the Maa Sharda Mani Trust and Book Bank in the year 2001 to provide scholarships and textbooks for higher education to desirous students.
