The Vishal Junnar family was founded on the holy day of Gudi Padwa in April 1978, out of a sense of social commitment, by the youth of Junnar, who had come to Mumbai in Junnar taluka to earn a living, to free themselves from the debts of their birthplace. They started their social work by establishing the Vishal Junnar Co-operative Society. During the eight-month period from April 1978 to December 1978, the Board raised funds through various initiatives such as distributing essential household items to the members at cheap rates, on a "no profit no loss" basis, distributing notebooks and books to the children of the members, and selling crackers and snacks at cheap rates on important festivals like Diwali. Later, by collecting three nominal membership subscriptions of Rs. 6 each from the members, a share capital of Rs. 132,500 was collected and a drama program of 'Phula Sugandha Maticha' or 'Phula' was held in the open theatre in Rani Bagh through the participation of 550 members. The inauguration ceremony of Vishal Junnar Sahakari patpehi ltd was held in the presence of the then Minister of State for Home Affairs, Hon. Bhai Vaidya and other dignitaries and the first flower of the family was born.
Vishal Junnar Sahakari Patpehi ltd was established. In January 1979, the business of the organization started. The head office of the organization was located in Girangaon like Ghodapdev and in the workers' settlement of Mumbai, Meanwhile, in 1983, the labour leader Dr. Datta Samant called a strike of mill workers and created a stir in the labour world of Mumbai. As the strike of mill workers was broken by the government, the entire mill workers in Mumbai went on strike and many industries and businesses dependent on it were in trouble. Facing many obstacles, the credit society has been running well for the past forty-six years by giving its best to the members. Today, it is an ideal and leading organization in the cooperative sector and is a great organization in Maharashtra.
Through the Vishal Junnar Sahakari patpehi ltd, educational scholarships are given to the students of the members of the organization. (Class 4 to postgraduate degree) Also, the organization provides financial assistance up to Rs 1,00,000/- for the treatment of incurable diseases and to members who die accidentally.
Due to government rules and regulations, the society is not able to provide social welfare Considering the difficulties in implementing the activities, the family established a trust organization called 'Vishal Junnar Pratishthan' in January 2012 through Vishal Junnar Sahakari Patpedhi (M.) and Vishal Junnar Seva Mandal. Vishal Junnar Pratishthan is the third flower of the family.
Through Vishal Junnar Pratishthan, the Pratishthan has resolved to implement many activities that are useful for students, youth, women and farmers or social groups. These activities are given in the Jantri or souvenir. Out of these activities, activities such as student culture mala, educational lecture series, career guides, personality development camps have been organized through Pratishthan for the last 40 years.
- The first step means the beginning of the next journey...! Best wishes for the future journey of the family
