Vidyaranya High School , Dharwad. Pre- Independence name Victoria High School. The school holds the pride and privilege of having legendary Da. Ra. Bendre , B. M. Shree and many others as alumni!
Current main building is built by the generous donations of Late Dr. D. Srinivas Dalal who willed half his property in the name of his dear school. Happened to visit the school to witness a similar beautiful act of generosity .
ANAAMADHEYA -THE SECRET HERO decided to make a hearty charity. School bag , books , pens and a Bhagavadgeeta donated to 20 female students of the school. Girls from humble backgrounds but shining bright in studies. In addition , a cute 5 yr old from a daily wage workers' family got sponsorship for her school education. SBI Geleyara Balaga, a 25 year old voluntary organisation by employees and retired staff of SBI Dharwad facilitated this. A slice of thousands of events conducted by the organisation. 25th year and the 25th time this particular event repeats as SBI Geleyara Balaga heads towards Silver jubilee .
In an era of selfies, self marketing, social media flaunting, THE SECRET HERO and SBI Geleyara Balaga choose to play low key. Name may have been under wraps. But, kind deeds cannot be hidden. For, kindness is contagious, it shall spread and flourish and inspire many many souls creating a generation of generous people. It shall continue to make world a better place day by day.
