There are over 65 villages of tribal areas in Thane, Nashik and Nandurbar districts of Maharashtra where people are illiterate and are living below poverty line. They are suffering from easily treatable diseases and lack of food. Additionally, they are chronic alcoholics and mainly depend upon daily wages to make their both ends meet. They are unaware of government schemes and other facilities. Farming is the main source of their income but because of only a specific type of crop grown in that area they are left with no food in major part of the year. This leads to malnutrition. Majority of padas (hamlets) are situated in inaccessible areas and are devoid of electricity and fresh water. Inspite of presence of schools in some of these padas, lack of infrastructure, unhealthy school environment has demotivated the teachers and parents resulting in no education for children. Recurring illness among children is another major factor that is demotivating children. So they end up working on farms helping their parents.
Asha along with the help of Pragati Pratishthan, Dr.Sujit and our dedicated volunteers from Mumbai undertook project Arogyaseva to tackle malnutrition and illiteracy among young children in Thane, Maharashtra. The project site consists of 65 villages in the tribal areas of Maharashtra. Of the four phases, three phases have been successfully completed and we are now into the fourth phase.
The successful first phase of the project provided books, infrastructure such as tables, chairs, water filters, mats and black boards. For the first time, two solar lamps were fixed in schools of Kumbhi and Karoli padas who had no electric supply before.The focus of the second phase project was health and literacy. Two doctors from Mumbai conducted a medical camp for 700 people. Essential medicines were provided to the villagers. Moreover, a computer was donated to Asey School to start basic computer education for middle-school students. Private teaching sessions were also arranged for high-school students to enhance their education and help prepare for their board examinations. In third phase we provided solar lamps for 21 families, to encourage parents to send their kids to school. We installed two libraries, supported 5 schools with basic infrastructure, Conducted agricultural visits for the benefit of farmers, Jaipur foot was donated for physically handicapped students.Toledo Rotary supported with $10,000 for phase-3.
In Phase-4

This program aim is to bring computer literacy among tribal youth, educate them about govt schemes which in-turn will help them to claim allocated funds for their betterment.

Parivartan Mahila Sanstha is a Non-for-profit organization registered in 2000 by women who were active in social sector in various capacities. The organization is established with the prime focus of women empowerment and thus deliberately decided to have an executive body with all women members.
A group of few active persons from different parts of Maharashtra State, came together to form this Organisation. All of them had one common interest and only aim that is “Empowerment of the women from society”. While every one of them were performing some or the other powerful activities, towards Women Development, in their local area, they felt the need of establishing organization to work for conveying & implementing the various programmes, government schemes at grass root level for upliftment of women throughout Maharashtra.
Since then with a vision of a society where every woman lives with freedom and dignity, Parivartan has made continuous efforts to address varied facets of life. Community participation and holistic development approach are the key word that we use in our organization. In all programmes we try to motivate participants, beneficiaries to participate actively in the process of their own development. We as organization play a role of facilitator and motivator. Our thrust is to make them self reliant and there should be sustainable development of the society. Along with this all organization facilitate various networks related to child trafficking and implementation, evaluating, monitoring various schemes running through Government.
