Parent meeting at brick yard and sugarcane families :

Meetings are held twice a month with the owners and workers of ‘Anand’ Schools and Sugarcane Schools run at 22 centers in Kolhapur, Sangli, Satara (Karad) division. They need to be informed about the work which we are doing as well as the new initiatives to be taken by the organization for that we get the appropriate cooperation from them. By holding meetings in this way, the owners and parents get proper information about the activities being implemented.
