INTRODUCTION
During winter term break 2014, I completed my
four week internship at Vijayeebhava Nagarjuna
Service Trust, Kondapalli, Vijayawada, under the
guidance of Devineni Kishore Kumar sir. He is a
member of Lions Club. As a member of lions club
he used to go to some government schools
nearby and help 2 children a year. In the process
of selecting the children he used to know the
childs background. He got to know that there are
many poor children who are willing to get
educated but could not due to their financial
status. So, with his wife Miss Devineni Joni
Kumari, and some other lions club members
started a service trust named Vijayeebhava
Nagarjuna Service Trust, in the year 2007.

PROCESS OF SELECTION
This trust will send 40 applications to
different government schools every year
and select 20 children.
Filtration of applications is based on a test
conducted by the trust.
It is not only the merit of the student
considered
but
also
the
financial
background of the students is more
concerned.
The recruitment of the students will be in
the class 8.
First the interest of the student is
considered while selection. Afterwards their
parents or guardians consent is obtained.
If the parents are not willing to send the
children, the trust people will educate those
parents on the advantages of education and
convince them.
The selected 20 students will complete their
8th class to 10th class in the school
established by the trust.

 Thereafter in the 10th class vacation the

students will be given polytechnic coaching.
If the student got interested in polytechnic
he/she will be sent to a good polytechnic
colleges (in Hyderabad, Vijayawada, Guntur
etc.,) with all expenses of the trust.
The students will have to stay in hostels
where they were studying. The hostel fees
and other expenses will be covered by the
trust.
If the student is not interested in Polytechnic
he/she may choose whatever he/she want to
become.
The trust members will see the ability of the
student and then decide whether he/she is
eligible.
If they think he/she is not able they will
suggest the student and give the student
counselling.
Even though the student want to do what he
chose, the trust will provide the student
good colleges at the trusts expenditure.
Some of the students are perusing their
MBBS Degrees under this trust. Many of

Words of the Chair-person

What is the meaning of human life? What are
we expected to do during the journey from cradle
to grave? Get good education, get good jobs or
do business, get married, give birth to children,
rear them and see that they in turn get good
education and lead a happy life? Then wait for
death?
Then pass away into the world of oblivion
without being remembered by anyone other than
our family members?
Human history shows that of the millions of
people who have lived and died in the world, a
few of them have left their names behind them,
to be remembered for ever. If we consider the
reason for their immortality, we realize the truth
that these people didnt live for themselves or
their family alone, but offered selfless service to
the poor people, people in need and suffering,
irrespective of their caste, religion, region or
language. Some people served society with their
political reforms, some with their scientific
knowledge and inventions. Some others, moved
by the plight of the suffering people, dedicated
themselves for their service without expecting
any personal benefit.

Great peoples lives show us that we should

think beyond ourselves and our families to make
our lives meaningful .Good human beings get
inspired by the good work done by others and
follow their foot-steps. With the earnest intention
of being useful to at least a few lives, by
encouraging them to nurture their skills and
abilities and thereby making their lives
meaningful, and through them providing the
same opportunity to some others, we started our
programme
'VIJAYEEBHAVA'
sponsored
by
Nagarjuna Educational Service Trust.
We select some poorest of the poor students,
of some merit, of class IX, from Krishna and West
Godavari districts without considering their caste
or religion. They continue their IX & X education
in the same schools where they are studying. But
during holidays they come to Kondapalli. In those
holidays they are given the required help in
English, Maths and Science. Along with this, steps
are taken to develop positive attitudes in them.
By instilling in them moral values, spirit of work,
self
confidence,
discipline
and
social
responsibility, they are encouraged to reach their
goals. After completing class X, their +2 and
Degree education (including Engineering and
medicine, based on their ability) are completely
taken care of. No money will be given to them
directly but everything needed for their

education will be provided .They will be joined in

the required colleges. All their requirements
including books and other things, and if
necessary hostel facilities, will be provided to
them. At that time also,
these students will come to Kondapalli during
holidays. This is to help them to keep their spirit
and make them grow as socially responsible
citizens with sincerity, dedication and spirit of
service. The responsibility of taking care of the
education of these children - 9th,10th, Inter 2
years, Degree 3 or 4 years, totally 8 batches - in
the way mentioned above is no doubt a great
task . But we believe in the saying, Where there
is a will, there is a way.
I am confident that with the co-operation and
encouragement of the above people, along with
the help and support of the members of lion
Districts 324 C4 and C7, the old students of
Nagarjuna and my friends and well wishers, I
shall be able to make the project successful.

Findings and Suggestions

Findings
Staff knowledge and capacities need to be
enhanced for future prospects for the
children to be effective.
Looking at the current scenario more effort
should be done at the organizational level. As
it is require to sustain in near future.
More awareness among people will lead to
more funds.
There is no proper monitoring of the
academic performance of the children
residing there.
Suggestions
The trust can arrange some experienced
visiting staff so that the children can get the
required knowledge
More volunteers should be encouraged to
address the children so that the additional
coaching can be given.
Individual counselling should be done so that
the children can express their needs and
necessary steps should be taken to resolve
the problems.

 The trust should approach other intuitions to

provide such kind of facilities for the
betterment of the future of the children.

Conclusion
From the above study we can say conclusion
that the Vijayeebhava Nagarjuna Service Trust is
doing a good job towards the future of
economically backward children. We can also
conclude that the organization requires more
awareness and services regarding education in
respect of the future of the children should be
taken as major function so that the number of
children not continuing with the Vijayeebhava
Nagarjuna Service Trust will be reduced. Surveys
should be done so that the trust can understand
the problems and get more number of volunteers
for their additional support.
