Introduction to Vanvasi Seva Samiti

Here is brief introduction of the organization-

VSS – Vanvasi Seva Samiti was established in 1982 in the tribal and hilly areas near Satpura range very close to Madhya Pradesh border. Satpura range near Jalgaon Jamod hosts tribal communities like Korku, Bill and Pawara spread across 50 padas/hammocks. These areas are remote with the residents face lots of hurdle and difficulties due to difficult terrain, poverty, lack of basic facilities like road and connectivity. The communities being spreads and difficult to reach they lack proper food, shelter, education and medical support.

With all these factors VSS is running an organization which will cover this 50+ location and support them for overall upliftment and improving their quality of life.

Our Founders

They didn’t just build an institution—they built hope, opportunity, and change that would echo for generations.

Late Ghanshyamdasji (Kakaji) Gandhi, Late Ajabraobapu Deshmukh and Narayansinghji Bayas Guruji were more than social workers—they were torch bearers of a movement. At a time when interior villages like Handiyamal, Shivni, Ambabarwa, and Bhingara had no roads or vehicles, they journeyed on foot to connect with tribal families and spread the light of education.
