Our Work

Six programs.
One promise to every village.

From school bags to ambulances, from clean water to women’s skill centres — every program Samarth Foundation runs is grounded in direct, long-term community need.

School bag distribution for children in Khed Taluka
  15,000+ Students reached
Program 01

Every child deserves a schoolbag and a future

Since 2016, Samarth Foundation has distributed thousands of school bags, stationery sets, and uniforms to students across Khed Taluka. The initiative targets children from Below Poverty Line (BPL) families where the cost of school supplies forces difficult choices. Beyond materials, the foundation has facilitated device distribution — tablets and computers — at rural schools to bridge the digital divide.

  • School bag & stationery distribution (annual)
  • Digital device distribution — tablets & computers
  • School infrastructure support — solar panels, murals, plaque projects
  • Scholarship linkages for meritorious BPL students

Healthcare that comes to you

The flagship Maha Arogya Shibir (Great Health Camp) brings together specialist doctors — ophthalmologists, dentists, gynaecologists, and general physicians — into remote villages for single-day comprehensive camps. The foundation deployed one ambulance in 2018 for emergency transport, and in 2024 launched the Arogya Sewika program — 50 trained female health workers equipped with tablets for doorstep digital health consultations.

  • 24/7 Emergency Ambulance service

Skill. Confidence. Independence.

The Mahila Asmita Bhavan is a dedicated women’s centre that runs tailoring, embroidery, and entrepreneurship training for rural women. The foundation also runs health awareness programs specifically for women — menstrual hygiene, maternal health, and nutritional counselling — in partnership with local ANMs (Auxiliary Nurse Midwives). Women’s savings groups (Bachat Gat linkages) have been formed in multiple villages.

  • Mahila Asmita Bhavan dedicated skill centre
  • Tailoring, embroidery & vocational training programs

First on the ground when disaster strikes

In 2020, when COVID-19 lockdowns stripped farming families of their only income, Samarth Foundation distributed over 7,000 grocery kits across 80+ villages in Khed Taluka — the foundation’s largest single operation. The crisis response team also responds to drought years with water tanker runs and dry ration distribution, and supports families during flood events along the Bhima River basin.

  • COVID-19 relief — 7,000+ grocery kits across 80+ villages
  • Drought relief — water tankers to affected households
  • Flood response along the Bhima River basin

Cattle feeding drive for farming families in drought
  500+ Animals treated
Program 05

Because farming families depend on their animals too

In agrarian Khed Taluka, cattle are livelihood. The foundation runs regular veterinary camps, cattle feeding drives during lean drought months, and awareness campaigns on foot-and-mouth disease prevention. Animal welfare is treated as economic welfare — a sick or dying animal can destroy a small farmer’s entire season.

  • Veterinary camps across 15+ villages
  • Cattle feeding drives during drought months
  • FMD (foot-and-mouth disease) vaccination awareness campaigns
  • Fodder distribution in crisis years for struggling farmers
Support Animal Welfare
School plaque and colourful murals representing community environment projects
  5,000+ Saplings planted
Program 06

Roots in the ground, eyes on the future

The foundation runs tree plantation drives across Khed Taluka, targeting 1,000+ saplings per season. Solar panel installations at rural schools reduce electricity dependency and save school budgets for books and teachers. Clean drinking water installations — reverse osmosis filter plants — have been set up in three villages, eliminating waterborne illness.

  • Tree plantation drives — 1,000+ saplings per year
  • Solar panel installation at rural schools
  • Rainwater harvesting awareness across villages
  • RO water filter plants installed in 3 villages
  • Plastic-free village campaigns and awareness drives
