Let us ask a question to ourselves. How often have we come across someone who wants to do something in life but cannot due to lack of resources? How often have we read in newspapers that a bright student could not continue with higher studies because his father is a street vendor? We all have come across such situations at some point of time or other. We feel the pain but remained helpless. We did not know what to do or where to go in such situations. But this cannot go on for ever and we decided to take a step.

Mr. Chandravadan Desai under the guidance of his father, Late Dr. C. J. Desai and in the loving memory of his mother Late Mrs. Jaswantiben Desai, formed Dr. C. J. Desai and Jaswantiben Desai Foundation in the year 1995 for the upliftment of society.

Presently, the Trust, besides social work, has undertaken a new initiative in the field of education, namely HIGHER EDUCATION LOAN PROGRAM (H.E.L.P.).

The present education benchmark has to be enhanced to cope with the changing global scenario and industry demands. Also the costs involved are very high. In light of the same our Trust decided to establish H.E.L.P.

H.E.L.P. aims at providing financial support to deserving / meritorious students for pursuing higher education in India and abroad. The main emphasis is on the fact that every deserving / meritorious student should be provided with an equal opportunity to pursue higher education with financial support on affordable terms and conditions.

The trust has tied up with various banks and shall make necessary arrangements for educational loans to the students at a nominal rate of interest.
