Ahmedabad, 27th April, 2025: Samvedana Trust marked a milestone moment at its Annual Parent-Student Gathering on Sunday, celebrating the academic triumphs and journeys of its Eklavya scholars. Eklavya scholars are students from underserved communities who have been empowered through sustained support, mentorship, and opportunity with the efforts of Samvedana Trust.
Hosted at Anand Niketan School in Ahmedabad, the event brought together some 200 attendees, including students, parents, mentors, volunteers, and other stakeholders, to honour the achievements of 25 graduating Eklavya scholars – including five postgraduates – and felicitate nine high performers who have excelled in academia in the past year.
A proud highlight of this year’s graduating batch is the marked diversity in achievements of students – the scholars include everyone from BSc graduates to MBBS doctors, to BBA graduates to physiotherapists to engineers. The postgraduates on the other hand include students who have bagged their MBA, MSc and other specialisation degrees.
In fact, several scholars, who might otherwise have faced dropout risks, have gone on to join the Indian Air Force or build careers as engineers and architects, with the sustained support of Samvedana Trust, reflecting the true power of education.
“This year’s Annual Gathering is particularly special as we celebrate the graduation of 25 bright young minds and recognise the remarkable achievements of nine outstanding Eklavya scholars,” said Ms Janki Vasant, Founder, Samvedana Trust.
“We are deeply honoured to share three truly inspiring success stories that reflect the profound impact of sustained support and the consistent spirit of our students from underserved communities. This event bears testimony to the power of collective effort and the long-term commitment we share with our students and their families,” she further went on to say.
The event was emotionally charged as three deeply moving success stories of Eklavya scholars were shared – stories that embodied the spirit of resilience, determination, and the sheer power of education. These personal narratives showcased how access to the right guidance and consistent support can change the course of an individual’s life.
The gathering also served as a platform to express gratitude to the many mentors, donors, and community partners who continue to believe in the vision of inclusive education and upliftment and support Samvedana’s initiatives time and again. Through engaging conversations, cultural performances, and emotional moments of reflection, the event encapsulated the spirit of Eklavya – one that thrives on hope, hard work, and heartfelt connections.
As Samvedana Trust looks ahead, it remains committed to nurturing more scholars who will emerge as changemakers in their communities.
