Dhadak Mohim in 2017 started from 22nd Jul. ...

The reach of second wave of Corona was far inside Melghat interiors. In the beginning of May, it was clear that some of the villages in Melghat are affected and we need to take action immediately.
Dr. Parvati Halbe, one of the trustees and Dr. archana Phansaklar had a talk with our team in Melghat and they both insisted on awareness program as first step. Online trainings were arranged for the project team. Our Arogya Maitrini, GavMitra and Chilati core group together form this project team. They have started visiting villages and making people aware about corona and precautions to be taken to avoid it. ...

The news of the onset of monsoon every year is invariably accompanied by news of increased infant deaths in Melghat. The pathos of the tragedy hits us when we read the statistics but gets lost in the hectic pace of our own lives.  At this very critical juncture, the group of volunteers at “Maitri” is intensely busy planning the Dhadak Mohim at Melghat and the phones start ringing to find out more about this initiative. ...

In January 2018, Maitri conducted 3 day workshop of 'Science with Fun' in Melghat. Some of the glimpses of this fun are available on https://youtu.be/OPmNDv50iRM ...

For past two years, young boys and girls from Melghat are coming to Pune to participate in 'Runathon of Hope', (half marathon) conducted by Rotary Club, Nigdi. "Maitri" a Pune based voluntary organization which works in Melghat is coordinating with these boys and girls.
We feel happy to share that few of them achieved good ranks in the Runathon last year. Two of them also got jobs in Forest Department due to their running skill.
This year 14 boys and girls are coming to Pune to particiate in the runathon in February 2018. Like every year, Tata Motors is making arrangements for their stay, diet, training and practice. However their travel, purchase of tracksuits & shoes is going to cost Rs 5500/- per person. Maitri needs to raise funds for this cause from sports loving friends like you.
We request you to extend some help towards this cause. We would be grateful to you if you can circulate this among your circles.
