Savitri Tribal Girls' Hostel
The hostel was established in 2017 to help the tribal girls to get access to schools and colleges in the plains of Dimbhe and Ghodegaon.
Social Difference
The social difference between other children and Katkari children and the associated social problems.
Financial Constraints
The number of students cannot be increased due to lack of space and facilities.
Limited Facilities
Shortage of funds adversely affects our ability to provide even basic facilities to girls and carry out day to day hostel operation.
Support to the staff
Staff members work without pay if needed, but never fall short in providing services for the hostel.
Challenges
The Shashwat Model
This hostel helps the tribal girls to get access to schools and colleges in Dimbhe and Ghodegaon cities.
Hostel is open to girls of all ages. It mainly helps girls who are from severely underdeveloped communities like Katkaris, orphans, dam-affected families.
The STG Hostel aims at becoming a complete support center for the students and not restrict itself to provide only lodging and boarding facilities.
