Computers for tribal students under CSR initiative

In a move aimed to bridge the digital divide in rural education, ESDS Software Solution Limited, in collaboration with the Rotary Club of Nashik Midtown, donated over 30 computers to 10 tribal schools. This comes as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative. The distribution ceremony took place on February 12, 2025, at the ESDS Data Centre in Nashik. Jitendra Pathak, Chief Operations Officer of ESDS, along with Ajay Jadhav, President of the Rotary Club of Nashik Midtown, and Madhuri Mahajan, President of Inner Will Club, presented the computers to the beneficiary schools. “In today’s technological landscape, digital literacy is essential. However, many tribal and rural schools lack the necessary infrastructure for computer education. Recognising this gap, we have initiated this project to equip students with vital tools for a brighter future,” said Pathak. The computers were allotted to the schools in Nasik, Chikhalwadi, Eklahare and Dindori. By facilitating access to digital education, this initiative aims to open new learning avenues for tribal students and enhance their career prospects, said Jadhav.
