School In Bus
Swami Vivekanand Manaparivartan Kendra is located in a village called Mamnoli in Kalyan district. Further there is a district named Murbad which has nearly 70-80 brick kilns and children at this Veet Bhatti are out of school. People of the Katkari community work on this brick kiln and these are migrated families. The organization has tried to make education easier for these children by bring bus to their doorsteps. So that these children are not deprived from the education. We made a proper school in a bus with all study materials like story books, regular textbooks, audio-visual material of learning, stationary etc. The bus covered two locations a day and nearly 25 children are involved at a time in the bus. At present, the organization has succeeded in bringing 25 children to the stream of education from these 5 brick kilns. If we get a financial help for the this project we can cover five locations a day and nearly 50 children can take benefit of this facility.

Temporary Open Shelter
While working at the railway junction station, we see two types of children.
1. Newcomers
2. Old children
who are staying at the station. It is important and necessary to accommodate new children temporarily as early as possible before they get mixed with the life of a new city. As per the Juvenile Justice Act 2015, the care and protection of the children has to be arranged according to the law, so Samatol has arranged in such a way that the children will get the facilities near the station. With respect to this law, Open Shelter Home was started in 2009 at Gala No. 55, Dadoji Konddev Stadium,Mahanagar Palika, Thane with the permission of the Department of Women and Child Welfare, Government of Maharashtra. Samatol introduce the idea of open shelter and then government adopts it.

Networking
In order to spread the work done by Samatol Foundation throughout India at a national level, Samatol feels the need to create a strong network among institutions and NGOs that are all over the country. Such a network will support in giving immediate help to any child in distress anywhere in India. This network will help us to locate the families of runaway children and connect easily with them to reunite their children. Samatol aims at creating co-ordination between different government departments and NGOs at national level to solve problem of any child across India. Samatol works with various Government departments like Police Dept., Railways Dept., Social Welfare Dept. and Women and Child Development Dept.

Working at other railway stations across India for children in distress
Samatol strives to reach out to the maximum number of children that are brought to the cities from different states for several reasons. They are either brought through child trafficking for the purpose of child labour or begging. In order to help them and reunite them with their families, we have started working at several junction stations in Maharashtra such as Pune, Bhusaval, Nagpur, Nanded etc. to help children in distress get immediate help and their faster rehabilitation to their families.

Awareness Program
Samatol Foundation tries to enlighten the children and their families from rural backgrounds on certain laws that are very important. The major laws applicable to children are Juvenile Justice (Care & Protection) Act, 2015 (J. J. Act, 2015) and Prevention of Children from Sexual Offenses Act 2012 (POCSO 2012), Child labour (Prevention and Regulations) Act 1986, Child Marriage Prevention Act, 2006 and Right To Education Act, 2009. Samatol arranges seminars for spreading awareness among students, parents and teachers. Similarly it arranges sessions for officers in Balgruh, Child officers in police stations and other police officers and also at other NGOs, hospitals, hostels and all other places where there are children. Samatol feels the need to spread such awareness in society and is also getting a prompt response from the same.

Organic Farming
Samatol has children majorly from rural areas who come to the cities and stay in open public places like stations, roads, and gardens. They are now habituated to eating adulterated food which may create health problems for them. To make these children aware about this and to provide them nutritious food, Samatol has started organic farming in its camp using gobar (cowdung) and go mutra (cow urine). All vegetables produced in these farms are used for our camp children which is why they are now healthy and fit. We plan to provide these vegetables to other sections of the society as well. This will help to create a healthy society free from diseases.

Annchhatra Seva
Samatol started the Annchhatra Seva in Thane in 2018. It first started in the civil hospital of Thane where food was provided to all the patients. Later, even families of the patients who came from rural areas to get their relatives treated benefitted from this as they had no food options but the outside unhealthy junk. Samatol noticed this need and hence gave a helping hand to these immigrants who came from far off. We apparently offer food for around 150 people every day and till date 40,000 people have taken benefit of Samatol Annchhatra Seva. Even during the lockdown, we helped several people from ST drivers to footpath beggars, labourers (in all around 13000 people) with our initiative. Many people and institutions offer their contribution to this project either by donating food grains or voluntarily coming forward to help us to serve food in Annchhatra.

Goseva
We also have Goshala which has 16 cows. These cows give milk on a daily basis which is provided to the children in camp. They get the required nutrition. Also, cow dung and go mutra required for organic farming are available from Goshala itself. Through this course, children learn about cows and are trained in feeding, grazing, and milking cows.
