    The Parandwadi Children's Village, constructed by Good Shepherd Homes, stands as a premier child facility nestled in the hills surrounding Talegaon. In 2003, George, Renos, and James Sideras generously provided the funding to purchase 12 acres of land and supported the design and construction of the entire development through their charity. Today, the expansive campus boasts 8 residential buildings, 32 double apartments, a sewage treatment and water treatment plant, and accommodation for over 500 individuals. The remaining space holds exciting potential for the creation of recreational and community areas.
