Welcome to Samata Shikshan Sanstha
At Samata Shikshan Sanstha (SSS), we believe in the power of education to change lives. Since 1972, we have been dedicated to uplifting children from marginalized and underserved communities in rural areas. Through education, care, and support, we empower the next generation to break free from the cycle of poverty and build a better future for themselves and their families. Our mission is simple: to ensure that every child, regardless of their social or economic background, has the opportunity to learn, grow, and succeed. With your support, we can continue to create an inclusive society where education is the right of every child, not a privilege.
From the President’s Desk
Some people are born just to live, some to change the world, and some people are born to change the system.
After Bharat Ratna Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar passed away, several people, with flames of his thoughts in their hands, set out for overall social change. Among them, Advocate Madhavrao Wagh and Prof. Vilas Wagh the brothers were very peculiar brothers.
Prof. Vilas Wagh dedicated his life to social work by adopting the message "Pay back to the society" given by Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar. Over the last 50 years, Samata Shikshan Sanstha has provided thousands of students with a safe and dignified environment conducive to the holistic development of students from underprivileged communities.
