What We Do

It is a well designed programme and very much special to our organization in which a whole gamut of various voluntary works take place. It can be undertaken with the co-operation of other voluntary or professional organizations. Our partners in these areas are Rotary Club of India, Barasat Cancer Research Centre, Narayani Hospital, Barasat, Hridaypur Netralaya welfare Society, Gobardanga Municipality and other Govt. organizations. The theme of the programme is to serve the poorest of the poor of the locality and the under mentioned activities are undertaken under the programme a) Providing food, cloth, shelter and treatment for old, helpless, poor destitute, b) Wheel Chair, food, cloth and treatment assistance to handicapped persons and c) educational (financial) support to poor and meritorious students.

We take donation from conscientious men to run our humane programs, specially ‘Eso Hat Dhori’. We appeal to society to come forward with their economic help to save helpless,ill,handicapped,old persons from the evil clutches of hunger and illness, to promote education for poor and meritorious students and to make shelter for homeless destitute. The donation is subject to income tax rebate under section 80G(5) (VI) of Indian Income Tax Act 1961.

Education is the backbone of a society. But due to lack of sufficient means , many poor and meritorious students are deprived of continuing their education and in many cases, leaving school, children are compelled to work as labourer in different sectors. We, with our limited capacity, are trying our best to make a change in this scenario. We have already adopted 21 secondary/higher secondary students and are providing them monthly stipends to continue their education. Besides all child students of 5 primary schools of remote rural area were adopted and teaching materials and cultural articles are being provided to them for their education vies a vies cultural development. Those adopted primary schools and selected poor and meritorious child students of those schools and they are being provided adequate financial help by us for continuing their education and development of artistic and cultural skills. Handicapped children are being provided wheel chares by us. They are under our continuous support for their medical treatment and nourishment.

On the 4th Saturday of every week SAHITYA SHABHA is being organized for the last 5 years in which literary personnel of the locality as well as renowned persons from the nearby districts take parts to have a discussion in the contemporary literary work in the locality. In some of the Shabhas, students also participate with their literary work like literary write ups, poems, paintings etc with a view to inculcate the habit and skill ln the child's mind. Two bulletins on the literary works have been published and the third one will be published shortly.
