Biswangan Shiksha Niketan is a beacon of hope for the barefoot children of local tribes and marginalized communities in Kumirmari Island and the adjacent islands of the Sunderbans, the deltaic region of the River Ganges. Established as an initiative of the Biswangan Foundation, our school is dedicated to providing quality education and holistic development to children who have long been deprived of such opportunities.
We believe that every child, regardless of their background, deserves access to education that nurtures their mind, body, and soul. Our mission is to empower these young minds with the tools they need to break the cycle of poverty and build a brighter future for themselves and their communities.
