From the Secretary's Desk

Dear Friends,

The work of Anriban Rural Welfare Society at Bhadura and Haridas Gram Panchayat in Diamond Harbour–II Block in South 24 Parganas district in West Bengal has continued to grow during the past year. The organization in the year 2000 started with 30 children who were child labor and with the commitment and dedication of the staff, volunteers and the Community has brought visible growth of the vision reaching to 500 children / youth and 50000 people directly through right based intervention programmes in Education, Health, Skill Enhancement and Livelihood.

We have been firm in pursuing our values, recognizing our shortcomings and we have been open to new learning’s and experiences from the communities. To make the Millennium development goals a reality, the quality of the children’s childhood and adulthood is greatly dependent on the responses of people with senses of individual and corporate social responsibility (CSR).

We are providing quality education to the children in eight villages and trying to uplift their life through education. Since we are true believer of Gandhian thought we are striving hard to educate all the children in the area and help them improve their living conditions. Apart that we do provide health care services , livelihood training and support, mental health counseling support to the children, adolescents, women and backward classes with the aim to change their lives and to support the better living.

Our future action plan is to empower children, youth and women through education, skill enhancement, and health care and livelihood facilities to make better citizen. We express our thanks to the people we work for, as well as to the individuals, other government and non-government agencies that have helped us to serve better. We would like to thank to Fondation F.Mary Pour I’ Education for children’s education sponsorship, Vital for Children for Sanitation and school benches, Freundeskreis Chotanagpur Dortmund for health and our past donors MAC-AIDS Funds for their support in spreading the awareness about HIV/AIDS among the local population and for livelihood for HIV patients.
