The Oshwal Mahila Mandal is a 62 years old ladies’ institution that binds Oshwal Families by the noble work carried out by their women. It is a mighty oak tree that grew from a tiny acorn, Its inauguration was done on 15th September 1946 under the blessings of Shri Hemchandra Maharaj.  

The initial aim was to educate the Oshwal ladies with reading and writing skills as most of the women then were illiterate.  Our few educated ladies took the initiative of teaching the reading and writing of Gujarati and English. As the saying goes "If you educate a woman you have educated the whole nation".  Today we see the fruits -  education is now a strong pillar of our community and most of the young generation are all graduates, many having more then one degree.

It is thus heart warming to note that in 62 years Oshwal Mahila Mandal has grown from strength to strength on its social, character building and leadership development activities.  Over the years it has diversified its operation and today carries out a tremendous amount of social and charity work especially for local people.

The talents of Oshwal ladies have known no bounds when you note the variety of activities and projects that have been organized over the years. Some of the projects are cooking, flower, arts and crafts competitions as well as demonstrations, oratory, quiz debates, talks and seminars on Medical lectures and general awareness talks for the ladies, tours, overseas and local, picnics and many more..

Oshwal Mahila Mandal is a non-profit and charity organization.  On a regular basis they donate food, clothes and other necessary items to the needy and less fortunate people. They collected KShs. 1,000,000 by having a fashion show and donated it to MP Shah Hospital for the Doctors Plaza.  They held free Medical Screening Camps for local people at Muranga and Machakos. Such camps are held regularly.
