“Ever since I was a student here, I've harboured a deep aspiration to see our school become a beacon of excellence, contributing to the betterment of our community. As one of the oldest schools in the Haveri district, I am immensely proud to witness the realization of my childhood dream. The school's upgradation
and reconstruction have not only led to a surge in enrolment and academic achievements but have also fostered a stronger sense of community commitment to the school's development. This remarkable transformation has earned our school the well-deserved recognition as a model school in the Haveri district.”

“I have been working here from the past 15 years. Throughout my time here, I have dsevoted myself to siding mothers during childbirth. Prior to the establishment of the new facility, we were confronted with numerous challenges- there was no labor room, and there was only one confined ward with 6 beds, with persistent equipment malfunctions. Performing deliveries amid another patient was quite challenging. The facility's upgrade, including the installation of solar panels, has been a game-changer. We express our gratitude to HDFC-ERGO for their invaluable assistance.”

“Under the Gaon Mera program, I nominated Kolamba & Machala Villgages, Jalgaon, MH. Thanks to the dedicated redevelopment of schools by HDFC ERGO, things have changed for better. For me this is the biggest contribution towards village development and nation building.” Atul Gujrati,

“I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the HDFCERGO for redeveloping my school in Pandiapathar. This new construction by HDFC ERGO under the “Gaon Mera” school Reconstruction program has bridged the gap between urban & rural as well as the rich & poor students' attitude.”

“Previously we had to travel long distances to do an ultra-sound or an ECG, since the upgradation of the new facility, we no longer need to travel far for ultrasounds or any common illness. The new environment is cleaner, with convenient seating arrangements for both patients and attendants. Additionally, the 247 power supply ensures a reliable healthcare environment.”

“The THP program gave me the strength to rebuild my life after a difficult divorce. With Bandhan Konnagar's support, I started a garment business and became financially independent. Today, I earn Rs. 12,000 from garments, Rs. 6,000 from tailoring, and additional income from selling milk. The training and guidance helped me manage my finances, save for my daughter's education, and invest in our future. I am proud to be selfreliant and look forward to expanding my business further”
