Education Programme - Slums of Park Circus - Kolkata

Despite being one of the most central and developed areas of the city of Kolkata, Park Circus is also one of the main pockets of poverty in the city. Around the station tracks, close to bridges and the avenue ..., sit large and marginal slums.

ME IMPORTAS develops an Education Programme in this area, providing scholarships for Primary and Secondary school targeted at children and young people with a strong motivation for studying, whose families are in extreme poverty. Children who, without an opportunity like this, are directly doomed to child labor or begging.

ME IMPORTAS establishes a long-term commitment with the education of our students. The scholarships cover full annual school fees.

For the proper development of the programme we work together with the local school "Daffodils School" where our students study.

Education, for ME IMPORTAS, is a key tool for change. Therefore, we have implemented a system of Sponsorship Studies, with the aim of helping as many children as we can. It is a transparent and personalised sponsorship format for each student and godfather / godmother.

If you want to be involved in this programme and become a godfather / godmother for the studies of some of our children and youth, or want more information about the programme, please visit our Education Sponsorship Tab or contact us at info@meimportas.net.
