Cultivating philanthropy at M S Dhoni Global School

– Deepitha K R, Director, M S Dhoni Global School, Hosur

In a world driven by materialism and self-interest, M S Dhoni Global School stands as an embodiment of hope, championing the noble cause of philanthropy with unwavering commitment and fervour. Guided by the profound words, “Philanthropy is not about money. It’s about using whatever resources you have at your fingertips and applying them to improve the world,” our beloved founder-chairman Mr. Chandrasekar, embodies this ethos in every aspect of his leadership.

M S Dhoni Global School is not merely an institution of learning; it is a vision brought to life by Mr. Chandrasekar’s unwavering dedication to social responsibility and educational excellence. For over 14 years, he has tirelessly pursued his dream of providing the younger generation with the best education possible, nurturing them to become global leaders instilled with moral values that transcend mere academics.

Aligned with his visionary ideology, Mr. Chandrasekar actively participates in and initiates multiple philanthropic activities, serving as a powerful inspiration to the students. Recently, in a heartwarming display of community spirit, M S Dhoni Global School spearheaded a philanthropic initiative to support the construction of multiple classrooms as a new wing for the Zuzuwadi Government Matric School, Hosur, Tamilnadu. The genesis of this initiative was humble – initially approached to sponsor the construction of a single classroom. However, as the dire circumstances of the school unfolded, a decision of unprecedented magnitude emerged. Mr. Chandrasekar, the chairman of M S Dhoni Global School, along with director Mr. Vineeth Chandrasekar, graciously took up the responsibility of constructing the entire block of the floor. This initiative transcends mere infrastructure; it embodies the spirit of giving back and paying it forward.

At M S Dhoni Global School, philanthropy is not merely viewed as a singular event but rather as an integral aspect ingrained within its cultural fabric. The institution emphasises the cultivation of compassionate and empathetic individuals, instilling in them a profound sense of social responsibility. Such initiatives impart values of empathy, compassion, and solidarity, essential for shaping the future leaders. Participation and involvement of the school in such gallant activities not only contributes to the noble cause of education but also fosters a spirit of community service and philanthropy among students.

Furthermore, the commitment to altruism extends beyond the school’s boundaries. The community service endeavour in neighbourhood villages near Bargur, Krishnagiri Disctrict, including providing food and clothing to tribal communities, have garnered appreciation and joy, emphasising the tangible impact of collective efforts.

Moreover, the distribution of laptops and textbooks underscores the school’s dedication to supporting students in need, ensuring equitable access to quality education for every child. These initiatives, alongside a history of philanthropic initiatives such as establishing libraries, computer labs, and supplying educational materials, highlight the unwavering commitment to societal welfare.

Another recent activity that deserves mention is the distribution of laptops and text books, as a gesture of extending our support to the students in need. Apart from all these recent initiatives, the list of philanthropic activities undertaken for underprivileged students in the past, is extensive, ranging from setting up of libraries, supplying of books and notebooks, providing them with well-equipped computer labs to providing them with high quality kitchen equipment, among others.

By exemplifying such acts of generosity and community engagement, M S Dhoni Global School establishes itself as a guiding light of altruism, showcasing the importance of empathy and caring in shaping the young minds of its students. Through its unwavering dedication to philanthropy, the school instills a profound sense of responsibility towards society, preparing students to become compassionate leaders who actively contribute to making the world a better place. As we reflect on the inspiring journey of M S Dhoni Global School in cultivating philanthropy, it serves as a reminder that even the smallest acts of kindness can spark significant change and leave a lasting impact on the lives of others.
