VSS initiated a crucial education module, establishing a well-equipped computer lab generously provided by volunteers. In this lab, VSS offers fundamental computer training for the children, covering various applications like M. S. Word, M. S. Office, PowerPoint, and M.S. Paint. It has engaged specialized corporate trainers to facilitate this training. To make the learning process engaging, educational games suitable for children between 10 and 14 years are available. These computer classes are conducted every weekend, with the assistance of corporate trainers, and last for 2 hours.

Food and nutrition - VSS places strong emphasis on providing children with a highly nutritious diet. It firmly believes that wholesome food fosters clear thinking in children.
Shelter – The organisation is in the process of redeveloping an old Wada to provide a safe haven for underprivileged children. This Wada consists of six rooms.

VSS offers access to quality education both within and outside the classroom. Education transcends traditional schooling and exam scores. It encompasses values like discipline, soft skills, lessons drawn from life experiences, and spiritual education.

For common health issues and emergencies, the organisation promptly arranges visits to local general physicians, and these consultations are provided at no cost. Prescription medications are procured from a nearby pharmacy. Additionally, it organizes periodic medical camps, including general health check-ups, dental care, and eye examinations.

The objective of this project is to promote reading in English, Hindi, and Marathi by providing access to newspapers, magazines, and books. The organisation has also furnished the library with a DVD player and TV for audio-visual resources. Children in rural areas often have limited opportunities for constructive recreational activities. Thus, the library offers them a way to utilize their free time productively and cultivate reading as a hobby. The organisation has collected over 400 books catering to all age groups, along with subscriptions to 8 magazines through generous donations. Currently, the books are not available for borrowing; instead, the entire village community is welcome to visit the library and utilize its resources free of charge.

Bal-bhawan, a distinctive catalyst for social transformation, is a highly successful initiative primarily dedicated to enhancing the education and healthcare of children residing in slum areas around Shrigonda and its neighbouring villages and talukas. VSS operates Bal-bhawans within the community halls of these slums. The activities conducted at these Bal-bhawans encompass playgroup education, tutoring, health check-up camps, fostering awareness regarding communal harmony, promoting good health and cleanliness, and elucidating the repercussions of unhealthy habits. This endeavour benefits approximately 50 children by providing them with primary education. Bal-bhawans also play a pivotal role in nurturing the children's oratory and reading skills, imparting computer knowledge, and encouraging their talents in drawing, music, dance, and crafts.
