Sohojia Foundation: Empowering Rural Communities for a Brighter Future Sohojia Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to transforming the lives of people in rural areas of West Bengal, India. We believe that every individual, regardless of how remote or challenging their location, deserves access to the benefits of development. Our mission is to enhance essential aspects of life, such as health, education, and knowledge, while working to eliminate barriers like social discrimination and superstitions. Guided by our vision, we strive to make life easier ("Sohoj") for those living in difficult terrains. Currently, the foundation operates in two locations: Barshi in Bankura district and Bandwan in Purulia district. These centers support nearly 150 students, providing them with opportunities for better education and healthcare. Our efforts emphasize fostering scientific thinking and nurturing young minds. A dedicated team of 15 volunteers works tirelessly to guide and mentor these students. The Sohojia Foundation thrives thanks to the generosity of our philanthropic patrons and members. Their financial support and other contributions enable us to grow and work towards a future where we can extend our reach and impact, uplifting more communities in need. https://lnkd.in/gCR6BvQh https://lnkd.in/gvr_EypW #sohojiafoundationdurgapur #Bankura #purulia Dr. Radha Tamal Goswami Abhijit Kundu Biplab Chattopadhyay sujoy saha
