During this one year period the organisation acquired an unexpected popularity and publicity among all sections of people throughout our state as well as in other parts of nation. Its activities steadily spread to the nook and corner of the state.

Activities:
Since its inception the Ramky Foundation feels proud to put forth the fast advancement in various areas of Corporate Social activities and those are narrated item by item here.
Ramky Foundation attached more importance to this aspect to improve. As a first measure WORLD FOOD DAY was organized in a big way on 15/10/06 in the premises of HWMP, Dundigal to create awareness about hygiene, Nutritional values and Food cooking methodologies among all the participants. Ramky Foundation mainly preferred to uplift the women belonging to deprived communities like SC / ST / BC and Other economically backward existing in remote areas.

conducted a big program on 18th & 19th of June 2007, in Gorijavolu a remote village situated in Narasaraopeta
Revenue division, Guntur D.T. Where 40 members among illiterate womenfolk have attended. An expert deputed from
CBWE created never-ending interest and enthusiasm among the trainees. Besides that they ware trained in
preparing detergents. Further awareness towards hygienic conditions, care to grow their children, education and
savings of money was created among them.
After that they became self earning members, started studies along with their children and husbands.Further they

By passing on appreciations all they have sounded with a rousing applause.
Foundation also conducted number of seminars with the help of Food and Nutrition Board.
During the course of our tours while conducting our camps and various programmes, we have come across certain poor, orphans and handicapped students. Immediately after assessing their practical difficulties our foundation adopted and provided all sorts of assistance for their survival as well as continuation of their halted education.
For example we prefer to present two cases here. In one case we have identified one handicapped young girl by name Adilakshmi who was effected with dumbness and deaf ears, her mother died and father bed ridden with chronic health problems. And due to which studies were brought to an abrupt halt though she was eager to continue. At that juncture we have taken up her entire responsibility and joined her in a deaf and dumb college (Sweekar) and hostel at Kompalle, Hyderabad and watching her personal care from time to time.
In another case we have came across one orphan teanaged girl by name Lavanya: parents less besides that near relatives also left her to her fate to live alone. Through one women organization after listening to her pitiable and unsecured life conditions put in our notice. Ramky Foundation at once adopted her and joined in a
secured Residential School and bearing her entire expenditure. Thus her halted education restarted.
One Mr. Meher Chinna Reddy aged 13 years boy whose father died and poor mother feeding and educating with great difficulty. That boy is having great ability in playing chess game. By noticing his interest his mother encouraging him by allowing him to participate in several competitions where he is winning also. In that course she is unable to coup up financially. While at that position she has approached us and sought our financial assistance. Immediately after noticing his potential in game spirit, our foundation provided all possible help for his participation in competitions at state and national level. Ultimately he rise to the level of a national champion and won three such titles even by defeating international level players.

Our Foundation Managing Trustee Smt A.Dakshayani is having a clear vision about the youth unrest due to poverty abrupt halt at their studies, unemployment, perversions, their damaged atmospheric and environmental conditions, arrived to some logical conclusions decided to go to their rescue to the maximum possible extent from our Foundation. In this direction Ramky Foundation held talks with the Chairman of the Ramky group of companies Sri A.Ayodhya Rami Reddy to generate maximum possible job opportunities to the unemployed youth in particular at rural and remote deprived classes. The Chairman after serious persuasions at Ramky group of companies advised our Foundation to conduct training camps and programs by tying up with all the Government Job generating trainers and experts in various fields like construction works, Coir small scale industrial activities and supervisory abilities. The Ramky Group of Companies promised the Foundation that they would generate and provide job opportunities for the trained, efficient and honest work force.
