One of the basic objectives of Sri Dwarkadhish Charities is to uplift people from all sections of the society irrespective of their caste, creed and religion, socially, economically and spiritually. Since inception, we are very keen in observing fulfilment of the basic objective of the trust. Apart from pooja and worship of Lord Dwarkadhish to attain spiritual upliftment of the society in general, we have also focused on the socio-economic aspects of human life. The trust had undertaken and completed following social objectives.

In the name of our Param Guru Poojya Leelatai Karve, a medical service centre, namely Sri Leela Chikitsalaya, was established and commenced from 2^nd July, 2004 for the benefit of villagers in the surrounding rural areas. The centre is well equipped with all the necessary medical gadgets and equipments including an oxygen cylinder. Expert doctors from all the three major medical faculties i.e. Alopathy,  Homeopathy and Ayurveda treated in last two years over 3,200 patients from over 50 villages from Pen, Panvel, Khalapur Tahasils of Raigad district. A proper medical record of the patients has been maintained alongwith the socio-economic information regarding their families. The consultation at the centre is totally free and medicines are available at a nominal charges of just Rs. 7/- per week or Rs. 25/- per month. The quality of medicines is maintained as per required standards and are dispensed by qualified physicians. Dr. Vivek Rege heads the panel of doctors and the management is looked after by Dr. Mayuresh Pimputkar.

Lack of medical facilities in the rural area are often cause for high mortality rate.  In case of emergencies, if the patients are treated on time and taken to a nearby hospital, where advance medical facilities are available, the chances of survival of patients are bright.   Considering this need, we decided to start an Ambulance service for the benefit of people from nearby villages and have recently acquired a brand new Maruti Omni Ambulance with oxygen and suction facility available on board and the same has been put into operation with effect from 10^th February, 2006.  The ambulance services are provided on no profit no loss basis and we have contacted the Surpanch and Gramsevak from the nearby villages and informed them that the service will be available  from their respective village to the nearest equipped hospital in Pen, Panvel, Rasayani, Navi Mumbai and Mumbai.

We also have a plan to start a Mobile Dispensary for the villagers in remote areas where the medical aid is required and the patients have to spend in traveling upto to the nearest Dispensary or Health Centre. We intend to take medical help to their door step by starting the Mobile Dispensary.

Over 1,000 patients took the benefit of the above camps. Iron, Calcium and multi-vitamin tablets were distributed free of cost to all participants during this camp considering the overall condition of malnutrition in these areas. About 250 patients were examined in the Gynec Camp and 75 patients were subsequently treated with suitable medicines and further investigations. About 168 patients out of 260 patients examined in the Opthomological Camp were distributed free spectacles and 24 patients suffering from cataract were operated free of cost at a well equipped hospital. We express our special gratitude to M/s. S. Hardilia Pvt. Ltd., Dr. Karnik’s Path Lab and Dr. Sangamnerkar’s Hospital, Pune and Charak Pharmaceuticals for their extra-ordinary support and services in making those camps a grand success. In future we intend to take a special camp for general hygiene and eye check-up for the students in neighboring villages who are becoming victims various health problems at early age.

We believe in spreading the knowledge by way of publishing important books and making them available to general public at subsidized cost.  We have observed that the philosophy of human life told by Lord Krishna in the holy Bhagwad Geeta has not reached to the grass root of Hindus spread all over the country. We have therefore, made an attempt to convey the teachings of Bhagwad Geeta in most simple language and form.  The trust has published so far two books on Bhagwad Geeta, namely, “Vishwamohini Geeta” written by Dr. Shriram Bhatkhande, a well known Sanskrit Scholar from Thane and “Vasudev Vagvenu” written by Dr. Uma Vaidya, Head of Department of Sanskrit, University of Mumbai.  Both the books are available at subsidized cost at our temple premises.  The trust has plans to publish some more books through a separate institution devoted totally to research work in the field of education.  Recently we published a book written by famous author & scholar Dr. G.B. Deglurkar on Bhagwan Vishnu, titled "Vishnumoorte Namastubhyam".

Right from inception the trust is distributing uniforms, books and notebooks to the poor and needy students in the nearby villages namely Tara & Kharapada.  In the last ten years about thousand students have been benefited by this scheme.

Poor patients from the villages do not have enough money to carry out investigation and perform surgeries even for life threatening ailments. We believe in extending financial support for such cause.  We have so far extended financial help to Fifteen patients for surgeries (including a neuro surgery) and specialized medical treatment.

With the exposure to the modern techniques of knowledge the overall intelligence level in the rural area has considerably increased.  However, due to poor financial conditions, highly intelligent students cannot afford higher and post graduation education.  In last ten years, we have helped five such brilliant students, who could successfully complete their education and have got suitable jobs for their livelihood.
