Countless people arrive in this city of dreams to chase their aspirations. While we often hear of the great success stories, there have been the unfortunate many who’ve been left helpless and homeless, wandering in the streets of this unforgiving city.

The Club carried out its Diamond Jubilee Flagship Project as part of their Integrated Village Development of Water, Health, and Education.
Pallipada Village, located in Palghar’s Dahanu district, has suffered from poverty, migration, and barren fields owing to a lack of water, which is the basis of our livelihood.
In order to foster sustainable growth for the villagers, the Club has installed solar panels, which will allow them to cultivate different crops and provide clean water to every farm and residence. They have also constructed a bore well, which will offer drinking water to all homes. The Club will now take care of medical facilities by giving a doctor with sufficient support staff and drugs to take care of healthcare needs for around 10 villages around Pallipada.

A rural sports complex that had been outdated for years and utilised by locals for unscrupulous activities has now been totally rebuilt and updated with the latest sports equipment thanks to generous donations from members of both the Inner Wheel Club and Rotary Club of Bombay North.
The Clubs, true to their mission of ‘Shine a Light’, did bring Shine into the lives of these young emerging sportsmen from rural India who lacked the necessary facilities.
This Project is a work in progress, and they have a lot of work to do here..
Initiatives like this can indeed make a significant impact on the lives of young athletes and provide them with the resources they need to excel in sports. Hopefully, the successful inauguration of this Sports Complex in rural areas will inspire and empower young athletes to pursue their dreams and reach their full potential in sports.
