Embark with us on a journey of empowerment and transformation, a journey that finds its remarkable milestone in the inauguration of the Eklavya Self Study Centre. Nestled amidst the heart of Lavali, a remote tribal village, this centre stands as a symbol of hope, opportunity, and the unwavering commitment of Lakshya Foundation to catalyze change through education.
The story began on 12.04.2012, a date etched in our journey’s timeline. It marked the realization of a vision that sought to create a haven of learning for tribal children who, due to their circumstances, often find themselves on the fringes of educational access. The Eklavya Self Study Centre emerged from this vision, an embodiment of our dedication to bridge the gap and provide holistic empowerment.
Crafted with meticulous care, the centre isn’t merely a study space; it’s a sanctuary of possibilities. Its well-designed architecture offers a tranquil ambiance, conducive to focused learning. But it’s the modern amenities that truly distinguish this centre. From the provision of sewing machines, nurturing vocational skills, to computers that open doors to the digital world, every element has been curated to empower students comprehensively.
The inauguration, held on 14.04.2012, was an event that resonated with anticipation and excitement. Amidst the assembled crowd of teachers and students, a sense of purpose hung in the air. Deepa Pardhi, an embodiment of resilience and determination, was bestowed the honor of inaugurating the centre. Her journey, from a differently-abled school dropout to becoming a village sarpanch, mirrors the very essence of Lakshya Foundation’s mission – to transform lives through education.
Shirish Patil, the visionary Chief Trustee of our foundation, graced the occasion with his inspiring words. He not only inaugurated the centre physically but symbolically, by reiterating Lakshya Foundation’s commitment to stand by every student’s side in their pursuit of education. The event became a canvas for students to share their stories of transformation, their journey from uncertainty to empowerment. Speeches brimming with gratitude painted a vivid picture of how a supportive environment can alter the trajectory of an individual’s life.
The Eklavya Self Study Centre is a testament to the belief that education transcends barriers and empowers beyond the classroom. As we bask in the glow of this achievement, we invite you to join us in celebrating the power of education to illuminate lives and create lasting change. Let this centre be a reminder that dreams can thrive even in the most challenging environments, given the right support and dedication.
