Rohkal Irrigation Project Our irrigation project in Rohkal in Khed Taluka district Pune covers over 200 acres of land. Earlier Rohkal was uncultivable, lacked modern irrigation methods and a stored water supply source. These were the prime reasons for these farmers producing only one crop a year, pushing many families into untold hardships. Over the last few years, we have tried to change the landscape and lives of this farming community by sinking a huge well, installing a pumping station and pipeline network to enable these farmers to produce 3 crops a year making sure their livelihood stays intact and secure.


Mahila Unnati Vikas MandalWomen’s Self Employment Scheme Empower the woman of the house and you empower the family is what we believe in. The NGO we are associated with teaches village women how to sew, stitch and embroider factory and school uniforms, guaranteeing them an additional and independent source of income. For this endeavor, we constructed a building, installed 25 sewing and embroidery machines. All was donated to the women who now manage and run this self employment scheme independently and successfully.

Dulcine-Pius Memorial Home for the Aged The desire to ensure a life of dignity for the aged was translated into building this modern, well equipped facility in the lush, green surroundings of Waki-Khurd, Chakan.
