These schools are recognized co-educational, english medium and are affiliated to the C.B.S.E. The first school was built in the Alwar district of Rajasthan which is named as the Alwar Public School in 1976-77. Eicher followed this by opening its second school at Parwanoo, Himachal Pradesh, in 1993. An year later in 1994, the Eicher School at Faridabad, Haryana, was inaugurated.In its aim to reach the remote interiors of the Indian subcontinent and provide education to the children in these rural areas, Eicher setup a foundation, which would work on, as its focus, interventions for improvement in quality of education initially in the government primary schools in rural areas.

Eicher Schools
Eicher’s commitment to the cause of education saw the birth of the Eicher schools at different locations in the country.The first school was built in the Alwar district of Rajasthan, which is named as the Alwar Public School in 1976-77. Within a very short span of time, this school became a great success and achieved excellent academic records. Soon after, Eicher followed this by opening its second school at Parwanoo, Himachal Pradesh, in 1993.An year later in 1994, the Eicher School at Faridabad, Haryana, was inaugurated. These schools are recognized co-educational, english medium and are affiliated to the C.B.S.E.
Goodearth Education Foundation
A Foundation set up by the Eicher Group of companies to implement its mission: “To educate India’s children with a special emphasis on the girl child starting with primary education for the rural poor.”This mission statement emerged from the deep desire among Founder members of the Company to contribute to efforts in the field of education, which they believe is a key area for facilitating change and progress in India.The work of the Foundation has, as its focus, interventions for improvement in quality of education initially in the government primary schools in rural areas.Work started in 1996 by providing support to an initiative based in Rai Bareilly district in U.P. This project covered 63 schools and has benefited about 15,000 children over a period of 4 years. In 1998 further efforts were initiated in Thane district (Maharashtra), Alwar district (Rajasthan) and Solan district (Himachal Pradesh) where in the first phase we are covering a total of approximately 90 schools and 9,000 children.

Disabilty/Medical
Vision : “To have a major impact on blindness and deafness eradication in India, especially among poor, by building an accessible, self-sufficient model institution, which has internationally approved performance standards and is focussed on quality, excellence and patient-care”.
Founded in 1926, Dr. Shroff’s Charity Eye hospital is a non-commercial, non-profit trust setup to enable people from all walks of life and all sections of society to receive quality eye care.
SCEH has a strong 75-year old tradition of eye care, and more recently, ear, nose and throat care. It has been known for both its high quality as well as the compassionate treatment it has offered its patients.
The Eicher group started providing substantial assistance to this hospital in 1996 and started to support this institution with funds and expertise. And gradually this hospital has started to emerge as one of the finest ophthalmic and ENT hospitals in Delhi owing to its international standards and adherence to hygiene and quality.
SCEH’s long term goal is to provide care approaching that of international standards for all patients, while at the same time increasing the number of poor people treated at minimal or no cost – becoming a true centre of excellence.
SCEH is now following a combination of the very successful models used by the three outstanding Indian eye hospitals with international quality standards – L.V Prasad Eye Institute in Hyderabad, Sankara Nethralaya in Chennai, and Arvind Eye Hospitals in Madurai. During recent years, SCEH has expanded its services.
These include :A new Vision Enhancement Centre, which provides vision-enhancing devices and advice to those who are severely visually impaired or blind and for whom little further can be done surgically or medically.
A School Screening Programme in which teachers in schools are given the necessary training so as to identify the students who are having some visual impairment. These students are treated in SCEH and return to school with improved capacities.An aggressive Outreach Programme which connects people who are financially needy, living in relatively distant or less accessible locations, and who are also poorly informed about what can be done about their unnecessary blindness. The main outreach is its satellite clinic in Alwar, Rajasthan. It has also introduced high quality educational conferences, a Quality Assurance Programme, and an intensive medical and patient focused skills enhancement agenda. Over the years SCEH has made tremendous strides towards excellence and is currently expanding and upgrading its services and reach.
