BEST PRACTICE NO. 1 : 2017 - 2018 SHREE RAJPAL KAPOOR FOUNDATION STUDENT WELFARE SCHEME

REPORT The Goal: With an objective of community outreach and extension, college has already instituted, ‘SHREE RAJPAL KAPOOR FOUNDATION’, a cooperative trust in remembrance of our first General Secretary of Uttari Bharat Sabha. Under its ‘STUDENT WELFARE SCHEME’ which is a flagship programme of the foundation, college awards scholarships to deserving and needy students. For the third consecutive year, Foundations’ call for donation as a means to finance the student welfare scheme received an overwhelming response, from college staff and external philanthropists alike.A good amount of money was also added to it from the collection received from ‘Rupee Revolution- Share and Care scheme’ practiced by Department of Self financing courses. The meeting chaired by Principal, Dr. Ajay Bhamare unanimously decided to give away the entire collected fund amount as Student Scholarship award to needy and deserving students. This year around Rs. 4,88,000/- has been collected in contributions from teachers, student other well-wishers and philanthropists. Students from self-finance courses contributed Rs. 12,000/-, collected under their unique ‘SHARE and CARE Scheme’. The collected amount has been distributed to around 64 students. This year the number of student beneficiaries increased considerably in comparison with last year. Apart from this monetary help the foundation also runs a ‘BOOK BANK’ Scheme for the benefit of the students. So far books worth Rs. 1,00,667/- have been added to the book bank under this initiative. The Context: The students are informed about the scheme through prospectus which contains an application form for the scholarship, through general circular intimating students about the scheme and procedure of application and through the same notice which is displayed at all the prominent places in the college premises. While selecting students for the scholarship, no specific and rigid criteria as such is followed. They are selected in general by adopting a merit-cum-need based approach. Care is taken to ensure that students are deserving, they come from economically weak background and they are not getting the benefit of any other scholarship/ freeship /financial aid. Sometimes even some students may be considered for this incentive even if they are getting other scholarship. The intention is to help genuinely needy students in whatever best way possible. The Practice: After applications are received, they are scrutinized and students are called for personal face to face interview with the selection committee. The biggest difficulty is the outreach. Even after due publicity R.A.D.A.V. College : AQAR 2017-2018 Page No. 83

and information provided to students, the committee feels that deserving and needy students are hesitant to approach the committee for various reasons, the main reason being peer fear. Getting a regular stream of philanthropists and fund contributors is another area of diffic ulty faced by committee. It is observed by the committee that the beneficiaries of the scheme tend to be more regular and punctual not only in studies but also in co- curricular activities. It is also noticed that a positive and encouraging behavioral change takes place amongst student and they become more responsible citizens. The committee wishes to increase the number of beneficiaries in the future and thereby help to change social fabric of the local community.

They spend some part of their net profit earned for this purpose. Film stars, sports persons and some others includ ing common people also share their money for some useful social cause. Our objective is to share the most precious and priceless thing with the orphaned and destitute children is our time and help them enjoy one full day so that they will cherish these memories all through their lives so that it becomes a source of joy forever. For this purpose, students of the college have come together under the banner of Rotract Club with an intention to help the institution fulfil its social commitment. It is a student initiative undertaken and carried out with utmost sincerity and responsibility by students under the guidance of faculty members. The Context: In keeping abreast with our country that is developing in leaps and bounds we have not only added a number of new courses but we have also been extremely vigorous in activities that benefits and uplifts the society e.g. free medical check up and free medicine distribution, blood donation, yoga camps, free eye check up and distribution of spectacles, cleanliness drives, fun fairs and entertainment activities for underprivileged children especially orphans etc. We ensured that this year different groups of students get the benefit of this ‘funday’. The Practice: On 27 April 2017, 185 orphan children from Yeoor Adivasi School, Thane which is run by a charitable trust and Anugraha Orphanage, Badlapur run by Dr. Illa Paul, retired medical officer from KEM hospital, Mumbai were taken to Shanti Sagar Water Park, Badlapur. The fun day started when all children assembled at 10:00 am. Firstly they were served breakfast. It was followed by water games and rain dance. Post lunch a magic show was organized for entertaining the children. Around 4:00 pm fun activities such as tattoo making, mehendi, nail painting were conducted. It was followed by dance and singing competition. Besides two students of our college dressed as clowns and entertained the children throughout the day. In addition to usual gift hamper, chocolates were offered to these students. They were also served with evening snacks. For full day fun ride, 15 staff members from Adivasi School, Yeoor, 16 staff members from Anugraha orphanage were accompanied by our college staff.
