The Society aims at increasing the literacy rate of the community and improving the standard and effectiveness of its educational institutions, and so, works:
- To help students with learning difficulties pursue their education by providing them with free tuition.
- To help deserving students pursue their education by providing them with financial aid and scholarships.
- To identify talented students in near bye schools and encourage them through various award ceremonies and helps them build confidence by making them compete with the best students in the country.
- To maintain the infrastructureof educational and civic institutes in needy areas.
The Executive Committee defines a deserving student as one who is unable to study because of:
- Lack of teacher(s).
- Medical reasons.
- Financial reasons.
Or any other difficulty or hindrance that is considered just by the Executive Committee.

Famous quotes containing the word education:
“A good education ought to help people to become both more receptive to and more discriminating about the world: seeing, feeling, and understanding more, yet sorting the pertinent from the irrelevant with an ever finer touch, increasingly able to integrate what they see and to make meaning of it in ways that enhance their ability to go on growing.”
—Laurent A. Daloz (20th century)
“With a generous endowment of motherhood provided by legislation, with all laws against voluntary motherhood and education in its methods repealed, with the feminist ideal of education accepted in home and school, and with all special barriers removed in every field of human activity, there is no reason why woman should not become almost a human thing. It will be time enough then to consider whether she has a soul.”
—Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)
“I envy neither the heart nor the head of any legislator who has been born to an inheritance of privileges, who has behind him ages of education, dominion, civilization, and Christianity, if he stands opposed to the passage of a national education bill, whose purpose is to secure education to the children of those who were born under the shadow of institutions which made it a crime to read.”
—Frances Ellen Watkins Harper (1825–1911)
