Help us in supporting the school of our area!
A strong gentle woman, with a powerful glowing face, Mrs. Wagh is a visionary, dedicated teacher, and founder of Gyan Sadhana Vidhyala in Vikramgad, Maharashtra. Wagh Bai is helping the students become better next gen leaders. Her school accepts children from tribal families that are unable to pay school fees. At the moment, the school is struggling for funds. Wagh bai has used her personal savings for the School.
You can help her and the beautiful school she has created by donating generously! You can sponsor a child's education for the whole year, or make a one-time payment.
Even a small payment will go a long way for the students and the school.
Ideally, send money directly to the School (bank details below). For those of you accustomed to quick payments, you can pay via the farm. That said, we are charged 2% transaction fees, so if you're going big, please pay the School directly!

What stands out to me about Mrs. Wagh:
- Visionary – Her school isn’t traditional. She takes on real world ideas like ‘Water’ and creates thinking that is global while connecting with the micro, localized experience.
- Humanness – She grooms kids from restless youth to refined adults, without imposing on their cultural sensitivity (which is a beautiful one to nurture). For example, the kids learn to be neat, not waste, etc.; While the lunch they eat is consistent what they would eat at home.
- Dedicated – She teaches tribal kids without financial privilege. Waghbai has worked hard over the years to bring in donors for the Trust, and personally funded when Trust finances have been low. Today, without the historic support of some of her donors, she’s been looking for financial help again.
Wagh Bai's dream: Purchase 1-acre of land, build a school, and grow a forest around it for, as she puts it, "kids learn better when surrounded by forest".
