== Volunteers ==
Many undergraduate students from [[SJCE]], [[National Institute of Engineering]], [[Mysore Medical College]] and [[Vidya Vardhaka College of Engineering]] and some IT professionals based in [[Bangalore]] are volunteers of the trust.
The trust often conducts various fundraising activities in Mysore city.
The volunteers involve themselves in a unique activity called ''paper empowerment'' in which they collect old newspapers from houses in Mysore and sell them to raise money, apart from setting up stalls, and designing and selling greeting cards. They also take up informal teaching at the school.

== Recognition ==
The school has ''no'' government recognition as a school, despite its successful history, because of the way it is structured, not conforming to standards. But it has been recognized as a charitable trust.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://divyadeepatrust.org/history.php|title=Divya Deepa Charitable Trust|access-date=29 July 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120813175816/http://www.divyadeepatrust.org/history.php|archive-date=13 August 2012|url-status=dead}}</ref>
