Our story
A small foundationwith a big vision.
Divyachetna Social Foundation was founded in June 2021 with one objective -to make sure no child's education stops because of a loss they didn't choose. What started as a small initiative has grown into a trusted foundation walking beside children who have lost a parent.
- Love
- Support
- Empowerment


The first and second waves of COVID-19 left lasting scars on Nashik and beyond. The death of a parent doesn't just bring grief -it derails a child's schooling, books, and dreams. We exist to make sure it doesn't.
We pay school and college fees, hand out stationery and uniforms, sit with families through counselling, and help surviving parents learn a trade so they can stand on their own again. We identify the student, we take responsibility, we walk with them to a career.

Our Mission
Our mission is to support children in the Nashik district who have lost their parents due to COVID-19, severe diseases, accidents, heart attacks, and suicides. We help them continue their education.
We work to provide learning support, vocational training, and life skills so these children can grow with confidence and independence.
By working closely with local communities, we aim to ensure that no child is left behind and every child gets a fair chance for a better future.
