Our partnership with VYSWO

We are extremely pleased to share our new partnership with Village Youth Social Welfare Organization (VYSWO). Mr.Murugan and his enthusiastic team founded an organization in 1994 for the improvement of their village Somanhalli, Dharmapuri district, Tamil Nadu. The registered as an Organization, under Societies act, in 2000. VYSWO executes social welfare schemes in different areas, more details can be found in their website http://vyswo.com/.

During the early part of this year, Vidial came in touch with VYSWO. During the month of May, our members, Amresh, Bharat and Swaminathan got a first hand view of VYSWO's activities at Somanhalli. They were pretty much impressed by the things happening there. We got the chance of interacting with VYSWO during the Theasthirku Thol Kodu program which we held in April. We were impressed by our experiences with them and were looking forward to work with them.


Mr.Murugan gave us a perfect opportunity by asking whether we chip in the area of education, which we readily agreed. After that he came out with a request for scholarship for a set of students. After various discussions, Vidial took up the responsibility of supporting 10
students for their education.
