Shamanna Soma Shekar acknowledges that providing someone with the gift of education is life changing because that person not only learns and has access to knowledge, but he / she also takes home the chance of a better tomorrow for his / her family. Educated people are more aware and better abled to handle situations, their minds have been molded to strive harder and think of many other aspects because their basic survival needs are perhaps taken care of. Education goes way beyond a degree, at school a child learns how to communicate, children from different homes meet and therefore broaden their thought process and perspective, progress becomes a day to day activity whether through books or a sport! Exposure, opportunity, awareness and knowhow are roads to success. With success comes stability, economic development, increased mental and physical health and an endless possibility of development of an individual, family, society and world. Shamanna Soma Shekar believes that education levels the playing field for people from every social stratum, an invaluable tool to growth that he strives to provide to as many children as possible. His most recent cause was to renovate a government school adopted by the trust to provide children a happy atmosphere to come to everyday.
