Late Mr. G. M. Chiplunkar, who was a “Life Member†of this Samstha, started a unique scheme, in the year 1919. He started this scheme to collect the funds to provide financial support to needy girls coming from weaker section of the society, to complete their education. The scheme was named as “Bhaubeej Fund Collectionâ€. To run this scheme, he approached the girl students for collecting Bhaubeej Funds. Afterwards many volunteers came forward to participate in this scheme. They approached people who believe in social responsibility for getting financial support to needy girl students.
The scheme received a good response from the public for last 100 years. The girls who cannot bear the expenses required for their stay and education, our Samstha always help them through the financial support from well wishers and philanthropists.
Girls staying in hostels come under different sections of society and their expenses can be further classified as:-
- Their stay in hostels
- lunch and dinner
- breakfast and afternoon tiffin and
- Other expenses (including medical expenses).
A large number of girls have received support from this scheme and they could complete their education successfully.
It is our sincere appeal to everyone to generously contribute for the Bhaubeej Fund and support the needy students financially to complete their education. This contribution can be made by Cheque, DD in favour of Maharshi Karve Stree Shikshan Samstha, online payment can also be done. The contributions of Rs.500.00 and above are eligible for income tax exemption under section 80(G) of the Income Tax Act.
