It is estimated that there are 35 million children in India who are in need of care and protection.
It is a large number.but at Divi,we believe that the way to solve this problem is to build a community around these children. A community of those who care and want to contribute in whichever way then can to help build long-term solution to this problem.

DEAP is the dream project of Divi Welfare Society, whose main objective is to provide education to those students who are forced to leave their studies after 12th due to financial constraints or students who after 12th from Banaras Hindu or any other university in social science. Want to prepare for civil exam or government exam after studying graduation, but due to lack of money and proper guidance, they are deprived of studying in an institution like BHU.
Impact Stories
At times we also feel that our neighbors are responsible for such situations as they tell our parents why do you educate your daughters,you have to give dowry at the time of marriage and there is no use in sending them to school.

Our mothers and grandmothers normally say “you are not different from us . we were also not studying Don’t waste time & money in buying all this useless stuff(bags, dresses, books)save some money for your marriage but Divi welfare society addresses the importance of education to my family and they provide basic education to me thanks divi team.
