Dr. Vinod Shah has come from family of freedom fighters. Through sheer hard work and talent he has risen above the delicate financial conditions of his parents. He did his MBBS and MD and later on received a degree in gastroenterology from USA. In Sassoon Hospitals he came across many poor patients who come to govt. hospital to seek treatment. In the evening on his way back he saw the same patients lying on the footpath whom he had treated in the hospital during day time. He saw their plight and decided to do something about the poorest of poor. He is inspired by the teachings and the spirit of service of Mahatma Gandhi, Sane Guruji, Baba Amte and Saint Mother Teresa. Initially he joined Jaycees International and his achievement there is spectacular. Later he along with his colleagues and his wife hired a small wing of Sonapur hospital at Khanapur, where he started health services. While doing so he saw the plight of poor rural elderly and reserved few cots in this same wing and thus began the oldage home. This reality, observation and experience prompted Dr. Shah to establish a voluntary social organization named "Janaseva Foundation” , in 1988. Motto of the foundation is ‘Service to Man is Service to God’ . Initially foundation started with rural hospital and oldage homes and gradually evolved into a well established, widely recognized and one of leading Charitable Organizations in Pune District.

Elderly Care and Welfare programmes Late Haribhai V. Desai Old age Home Shri Rasiklal Manikchand Dhariwal Old age Home Mrs. Icharjbai Chunnilal Khivansara Old age Home Due to rising population, urbanization, small houses, disintegration of joint family system and changing living values have adversely affected the society and particularly the elderly. This has affected elderly from both, poor and well to do families. This Oldage home was founded with generous donation from Shri Nitinbhai Desai, in the memory of Late. Shri. Haribhai V. Desai. About 50 elderly can be accommodated here. However, later even this was found to be insufficient to accommodate ever rising influx of elderly. Therefore another old age home was constructed with the donation received from Shri Rasiklal Manikchand Dhariwal and Mrs. Shobha Dhariwal and hence
