Who we are

Lok Vichar Pratishthan Parbhani Akshar Anand Vachan Sanskar Kendra has been active in eight districts of Maharashtra for the past five years, with a mission to promote reading and instil a reading culture, especially among children. They employ various methods to achieve this goal, including family reading initiatives, finding excuses to read, organising book reading competitions, establishing Reading Culture Centers, and encouraging discussions about the books read. This organisation is dedicated to fostering a love for reading and books in children, reaching out to villages, settlements, and different schools in the region.

Lok Vichar Pratisthan is a social welfare organisation primarily focused on educational initiatives. They run the Wachan Sanskar Kendra, a reading and writing centre in Parbhani, Maharashtra, which has been running the Akshar Anand campaign for over two years. Additionally, they conduct educational programs related to astronomy, promote cycling for health and pollution awareness, and work to eliminate superstitious beliefs within the community.
