At VARHAD, we are dedicated to transforming the lives of underprivileged children by providing them with access to quality education and essential resources. We focus on supporting children who have dropped out of school or are unable to attend due to challenges such as poverty, family disorganization, or other hardships.
Through our efforts, we strive to create a world where every child, regardless of their circumstances, has the chance to learn, grow, and achieve their full potential.
At VARHAD, we are deeply committed to safeguarding the well-being and future of vulnerable children, including those of prisoners. Under Indian law, children of convicts are permitted to reside with their imprisoned mothers until the age of six. Recognizing the adverse impact of prison life on these young minds, VARHAD established Nursery School (Balwadi) specifically for the children of prisoners.
This Balwadi serve as pre-schools, providing a nurturing and stimulating environment for early childhood education. Our efforts are focused on imparting holistic, all-round education, ensuring these children receive the care, learning, and developmental support they need during their formative years.
Through this pioneering initiative, we aim to liberate these children from the constraints of prison life, offering them a brighter and more hopeful future. By addressing their educational and emotional needs, we strive to break the cycle of disadvantage and empower them to thrive beyond their circumstances.
At VARHAD, we are committed to empowering youth through our Samrat Ashoka Study Centre Initiative. This initiative is designed to support young, unemployed individuals from rural and socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds by providing them with the resources and guidance needed to excel in competitive job-oriented exams such as UPSC, MPSC, Banking, Railways, SSC, and SSB.
Through this program, we offer free access to a well-equipped reading room and limited accommodation facilities for students who come from distant areas and cannot afford lodging in Amravati. These facilities ensure a conducive environment for focused preparation.
In addition to these resources, we organize expert guidance sessions by inviting professionals and mentors from various cities to provide timely advice and mentorship. Over the years, hundreds of students have successfully secured jobs, thanks to the comprehensive support provided by VARHAD.
Our goal is to bridge the gap between opportunity and aspiration, enabling young minds to achieve their dreams and contribute meaningfully to society.

I am from Mnadwa village of Dharni block in Amravati district. After my mother’s imprisonment, there was no one to look after my elder brother and me. We did not know how to survive. Our house was dilapidated and the animals like pigs, dogs and cows always entered into our houses.
