THE BEGINNING
In 1993, Mrs. Surjit Wasu and Cdr. Ajit Singh Wasu thought of setting up a dispensary. To start with, he set apart a piece of land measuring 250 sq. yds. with a small building, out of his own house , where a dispensary with one doctor was set up. Seeing the noble cause, other friends came forward to help and a double storey building covering the whole plot was constructed. The dispensary was expanded on the ground floor and a nursery school with one teacher was set up on the first floor. Later on, a plot of land measuring 2500 sq.yds. was purchased by Sh. S.K. Gulhati and Mr. Mandeep Wasu and the School was shifted there and the dispensary was further expanded on the first floor also.
In 1996, the Surjit Wasu Memorial Charitable Trust with the following members was formed and was duly registered;
