Vanarai was established by Padma Vibhushan Dr. Mohan Dharia in the year 1982. After achieving considerable success, it was registered under the Charitable Trust Act in 1986. Over the past 30 years, Vanarai has spread it’s ambit to all parts of Maharashtra. Vanarai is recognised as a noteworthy voluntary organisation at the State and National levels due to our significant achievements at village level.  Vanarai has carried out various initiatives in more than 250 villages with the chief motive of making them self-reliant through people’s participation. We conduct training, motivation and awareness camps to encourage locals to assist in the development of their villages. A major activity of Vanarai involves transforming wasteland into productive, fertile territory. Over the years, we have planted trees in various villages and also encouraged farmers and other voluntary organisations to take up the green initiative.
