To do these things in a better way, I started an organization called “Snehadeep Pratishthan” ten years ago. Here we work to help patients from leprosy hospital & old people from old age homes, perform & arrange operations as per requirement, distribute clothes, food, baby swings & milk powders etc. I work especially for homeless and mentally ill people. I go and help any person immediately found roaming in city and surrounding areas who is homeless and mentally unstable. Most of the times these people even don’t have proper clothes to wear. I help them to wear clothes and feed them. It is very difficult to build their confidence. Due to all the bad experience, they even don’t allow anyone to come near them. It is important to get them admitted to hospital by giving them assurance. Sometimes there are burn wounds on their body. Many times, they even don’t realize that they are pregnant, or their hands or legs are fractured. After the necessary treatments, I ensure they get a permanent & safe dwelling place to live. Unfortunately, number of women patients are higher. Till date, I have helped almost 25 men and women. Small children and women lose their mental stability due to personal issue in their life. To help reduce the mental stress in children caused due to studies, I do their counselling free of cost. Also, I provide free consultation to those who go for divorce due to family arguments. From last 7 to 8 years, I arrange water tankers everyday on my own expenses in rural areas facing water scarcity in summer. I am also active in field of literature right from my college days. It involves story writing, poetry, and fine writing. I was also involved in column writing called “Maziya Mana” in daily newspaper “Lokmat” for the past one year. It received a good public response. My two-anthology named, “Sonpahat” & “Onjalitley Moti” are ready while third one named “Gondan” is on the way for publication. “Onjalitley Moti”, has received many awards, one being “V.D.Savarkar” award received from Sudhir Moghe . I also organize shows by name “Onjalitley Moti”. Also received many awards for my social work, like “Maharashtra Gauvrav”, “Nariratna Puraskar” etc. Also received “Ahilyabai Holkar” award from government. I dedicate my awards to all the people I work for! Smt. Bhagyashri Abhay Kulkarni,Dhule.
