Social responsibility has always been an integral part for Mr. Yeshwant N. Chaphekar long back when he was still a struggling boy searching for good education. The struggle had a deep impact on him such that he wanted to deliver proper education to children compared to what he could not gain in his childhood. Eventually he adopted a school in ‘Manor,’a small village, 150 kms. from Mumbai for social development and growth purpose. His dream of self-sufficiency had begun.

Mr. Yeshwant N. Chaphekar was instrumental in the idea of rural development way before the CSR term was coined. Having lived most of his life in poverty & without proper education he knew the pain and felt the pinch of villagers who were cut off from basic necessities. Hence this was his way to give back to the society, his promise of welfare & prosperity.

Today the village is a shining example of development & good infrastructure, wherein children are pursuing higher studies and people are part of progressive society. By introducing digital education a new page in the development of village has been turned.

The dream is now carried forward by his family & well-wishers who want to follow his footsteps towards better society by indulging selflessly for a noble cause.
