ABOUT US
Ravsaheb Chimanalal Maniyar Trust
Empowering through Education. Supporting with Compassion. Preserving our Heritage.
The Ravsaheb Chimanalal Maniyar Trust was founded with a profound vision to uplift society through education, women empowerment, and holistic community welfare. Inspired by the life and values of Late Shri Ravsaheb Chimanalal Maniyar and Late Smt. Kamalabai Maniyar, the Trust continues its mission of service with dedication, inclusivity, and cultural pride.
Rooted in Pune, the Trust supports a range of philanthropic initiatives including a hostel facility for underprivileged students, women empowerment programs, and assistance to elderly and vulnerable groups. It also plays a key role in promoting Sanskrit education and the science of Ayurveda, upholding India’s spiritual and cultural legacy.
Over the years, the Trust has provided scholarships to deserving students, supported widows and single mothers with tools like sewing machines, floor mills, and refrigerators, and collaborated with other trusts in creating spaces for religious discourse, study, and social upliftment.
Our founders believed that even a small act of kindness can bring a large wave of transformation. Carrying that legacy forward, the current board of trustees continues to expand the Trust’s reach and impact in newer, more meaningful ways.
