About the Organisation: A noted educationist who felt the need for more research and improvement in education and psychology set up this charity 35 years ago with the vision of all-round development of underprivileged women and children in Kolkata. It has a wide portfolio of activities with the focus on children in various situations including children who must work for a livelihood, street children, orphans and abandoned children. They also work with deprived women to help increase their self-confidence and ability to contribute to family decisions. The charity is acclaimed for its programmes that directly benefit the deprived and also for the research that is carried out in education across the city.
Who they are: They are a large and well-recognised charity in Kolkata that serves many hundreds of children and families through education, nutrition, healthcare, social services, and advocacy. They are an organisation that trusts in children, and strive to ensure that all their activities and services are as effective as possible through research and needs-based programmes. Over the years they have completed various different projects on a variety of social issues and these have then gone on to inform and contribute to policies and decisions for other programmes involving destitute children.
 What they do: They undertake a wide portfolio of activities including: the rehabilitation of children working in dangerous occupations; providing services to street children and families including education, nutrition, healthcare; providing counselling services to those affected by drug addition with a focus on support for the individual and their family. They run different types of schools and vocational training services for children and young women. They also strive to improve education services provided by the government through training and adopting schools for a holistic approach to improving education across the area.
