Chennai: In a heartening initiative, actor Vishal’s ‘Devi Foundation’ has once again extended its support to underprivileged students, ensuring that financial barriers do not hinder their academic aspirations. This year, the foundation has facilitated college admissions for students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds for the 2024 academic session.

The Devi Foundation, named after Vishal’s mother, has been a beacon of hope for many over the years. Known for its wide range of philanthropic activities, the foundation focuses on providing educational opportunities to those who excel academically but lack financial resources.

For 2024, the foundation targeted students from farming families, first-generation graduates, and orphans living below the poverty line. Through meticulous registration and counseling sessions, the foundation selected deserving students and secured their admissions in various arts and engineering colleges.

Beyond education, the Devi Foundation is renowned for its comprehensive community support programs:

  • Aid to the Elderly: Under the ‘Mother Teresa’ initiative, the foundation provides essential supplies and food to elderly individuals living on the streets. Severely affected elderly are placed in old age homes and mental health facilities with the help of local authorities.
  • Women Empowerment: The ‘Devi Sakthi’ program offers skill development training in areas such as sewing and computer skills to women from economically weaker sections, enhancing their employment prospects and boosting their self-confidence.
  • Disaster Relief: During natural calamities and the COVID-19 pandemic, the foundation has been proactive in delivering essential supplies to affected communities.
  • Support to Farmers: Recognizing the pivotal role of agriculture, the foundation provides financial aid to distressed farming families and promotes environmental conservation by planting palm seeds and saplings.
  • Health Initiatives: The foundation regularly conducts blood donation drives and medical camps, providing crucial healthcare services to the underprivileged.
  • Festive Outreach: On special occasions such as national leaders’ birthdays and major festivals like Pongal, Diwali, Ramzan, Christmas, and New Year, the foundation distributes food and clothing in old age homes and orphanages.

Each year, in memory of the late Dr. Abdul Kalam, the foundation offers scholarships and support to students from impoverished backgrounds, particularly focusing on female students aspiring to pursue higher education in arts and engineering.

This year’s efforts saw numerous students from underprivileged backgrounds gain admission to prestigious colleges, thanks to the unwavering support of the Devi Foundation. These initiatives not only provide immediate relief but also pave the way for a brighter future for many young individuals.
