The 2025 edition of the Shrimad Rajchandra Educational Aids initiative received an overwhelming response from students and parents nationwide. The drive witnessed long queues and heartfelt gratitude as essential school materials were distributed at significantly subsidised rates to support students from underserved communities.
Shrimad Rajchandra Educational Aids has been committed to making education accessible and affordable. This year, once again, high-quality Classmate brand notebooks in multiple sizes, modern and durable school bags, compass boxes, writing pads, and other learning materials were offered at prices upto 35% lower than market rates. The 2025 initiative has expanded to more than 100 centres across India, covering key locations including Valsad, Dharampur, Kaprada, Umargam, Bilimora, Pardi, Vapi, Navsari, Chikhli, Dang, Tapi, Vadodara, Ahmedabad, Rajkot, Surat, and Mumbai suburbs like Ghatkopar, Matunga, and Chembur. Students in Bangalore and Chennai also benefitted from this drive. Distribution drives were also conducted at corporates in Vapi, Daman, Silvasa, Vadodara and Ahmedabad. Some of the notable corporates included Meril Group, RR Kabel, Blue Star, Balaji Wafers, Corona Remedies, Flair Pens, Bayer India, Huber Group, Transformers & Rectifiers India etc.
This year, over 1.5 lakh students across rural and urban India were equipped with essential educational tools, providing them with not just supplies, but confidence and hope. Many parents expressed their appreciation, citing the relief of receiving premium-quality products at affordable rates during the crucial back-to-school period.
The initiative, which has now positively impacted over 2 million students to date, continues to be a beacon of hope for families facing financial hardship. More than just a distribution programme, Shrimad Rajchandra Educational Aids reflects the deep belief that every child deserves the right tools for learning, regardless of their background.
