"Fandry Foundation" - A Medium of Bridging the gap between the Needy and the Blessed ones.

An inspiration from the Marathi movie “Fandry” written & directed by Nagraj Manjule Sir.

Fandry was onboard from 25th May 2014 through an appeal on various social media platforms to donate usable clothes & educational material to needy tribal people & less fortunate students.

The appeal of donation not only recieved huge response but also was bolstered by the joining of many young faces who had the desire of working for this noble cause.
