Public Works Minister Satish Jarkiholi inaugurated Mahesh Foundation’s Utkarsh School and MyBlood Charitable Blood Bank in Belagavi on Sunday.
“Mahesh Foundation has been doing commendable social work for over 15 years now. Its first school focused on education of HIV positive children. But their recent projects aim at mainstream education of poor children. The government has supported the foundation by approving its applications for new schools,” the Minister said.
The school follows the Nali Kali model of the State government and focuses on alternative learning modules. It trains children in art, music and sports, other than livelihood activities. It offers free education for children from poor families.
