You may hardly believe it, but even today there are many villages in Uttarakhand where there are no roads, no electricity, no network, no education, and no healthcare facilities. One such village is Osla, the last village of Uttarkashi. When the villagers informed us about their situation a year and a half ago, we couldn’t believe it. But when we sent our team and couldn’t contact them for 4–5 days, we realized such a place truly exists.
Based on the information received from the team, we decided to open a school in Osla village. Although we had no funds at that time, as they say, “Where there is a will, there is a way.” With the support of all Samoon family members and donors, we laid the foundation of Samoon Adarsh Vidyalaya on April 1, 2021. As soon as the school opened, 200 children enrolled, and for the past year, we have been providing free, high-quality education to the children of Osla and Pawani under the banner of Samoon Adarsh Vidyalaya.
To run Samoon Adarsh Vidyalaya, Samoon Computer Training Center, and other offices, we spend more than ₹1 lakh every month, which is received solely through the support of all you donors.
Currently, we are running Samoon Adarsh Vidyalaya in a rented building, but due to the lack of space for extra activities and classrooms, we are forced to teach children under the open sky. However, due to snow and extreme cold in this region, teaching children outside can harm their health. Therefore, we have decided to construct our own school building for Samoon Adarsh Vidyalaya between Osla and Pawani villages. For the construction of this sacred temple of Saraswati, we will initially need at least ₹15–20 lakhs. Although collecting such a large amount is difficult, it is not impossible. Very soon, we are going to start the construction work of Samoon Adarsh Vidyalaya in this remote area.
Hence, we request all Samoon family members, followers, and humanity-loving individuals to contribute a small donation for the construction of this sacred temple of Saraswati so that the future of hundreds of illiterate children can be brightened. A government school was built there in 2014, but it remains deserted. We have made many requests to the government for this vacant school, but the government prefers to keep it deserted rather than give it to someone else. Anyway.
We not only hope but firmly believe that just as you have continuously supported every social cause for the past 11 years, you will also support the construction of this grand temple of Mother Saraswati. You can donate even ₹10 according to your capacity. Among the five types of donations, Vidya Daan (donation of education) is considered the greatest because it is the only donation that grows by sharing.
Let us come together to provide better education to these children so that they can become educated and give a new direction to their families, society, and the country. Today’s children are the future of our nation, so we must pay special attention to their education and ensure that no child is deprived of it.
