Visit to the cultural heritage of Maharashtra-Sant Darshan Hadashi, Pune.

CASP Raigad unit had arranged an excursion of 60 sponsored children to Sant Darshan Hadashi, Pune on 1st March 2026. The objective of this excursion was to create awareness among the children about the cultural heritage, art and spiritual history of Maharashtra. The children enjoyed watching stone carvings of over 1200 saints, display of the lives of these saints and the cave like structure. The children also visited Narayani Dham temple at Lonavala. The children enjoyed delicious lunch at Hadashi.
This excursion was more than just a trip—it was an opportunity for the children to have a deeper understanding of Pune’s culture and traditions i.e learning beyond the classroom, gaining exposure to new environments. For many of them, it was their first such experience.

CASP Raigad unit is happy to inform you that we had organized a special screening of a socially relevant movie "KrantiJyoti Vidyalaya" for our 135 sponsored children on 10th February 2026, at Moreshwar Multiplex, Pen. The purpose of this activity was to create awareness on important social values such as education, equality, responsibility, and positive life choices.
The children actively participated and showed great interest in the message conveyed through the film. After the screening, a short discussion session was conducted to help them reflect on the key learnings and relate them to their own lives.
Such activities are made possible because of your generous support and continued encouragement from the sponsors. We sincerely thank them for helping us provide not only educational assistance but also opportunities for holistic development.

Guidance Seminar for 10th std students

CASP Raigad unit organised a guidance seminar for 10th std students on 27th January 2026. 75 students from Pen and neighbouring villages attended the session. The students were guided on English, Mathematics and Science subjects by three expert teachers.
The 10th standard is an important milestone in a student’s academic journey. The choices made after this stage play a significant role in shaping one’s future career and personal growth. This guidance seminar is organized to help students understand their strengths, explore available career options, and make informed decisions with confidence.
The seminar focused on:
• Understanding the importance of self-assessment, including interests, abilities, and aptitude
• Importance of goal setting, time management, and disciplined study habits
• Managing exam stress, building self-confidence, and maintaining mental well-being
• Role of parents, teachers, and mentors in career planning
Students were encouraged to ask questions, clear doubts, and think positively about their future. The session aimed to motivate students to believe in themselves, work hard, and choose a path that matches their interests and long-term goals rather than peer pressure.
This seminar will help students gain clarity, confidence, and direction to take the next step in their educational journey responsibly and wisely.
