SEWA-SAMARPAN SANSTHAN


Sewa-Samarpan Sansthan, a Gurukul, is located in Babhani (Chapki), Beejpur in Sonebhadra District of Uttar Pradesh. It is 30 Km ride from NTPC Rihand Nagar.

Ashram provides free education and residence to sixty tribal children till class sixth. After that students go to nearby high schools by bicycles. Intelligent students are promoted for pursuing higher education.

This ahsram has churned the lives of tribal people who have been living in primitive ages. They all were taught to take care of their own children and understand the family values. Children are brought up in such a way that they do all their daily works by themselves. They got appreciation by their behaviour to their parents.

Anandji, a lawyer by degree from reputed Allahabad University, has dedicated his lives for the welfare of these people. Meeting with at least twenty-five families a day in the circle of 200 km radious is his habit for collecting resources for running the Ashram. He also raoms in jungle of Sonebhadra District to meet tribal people and understand their lives and difficulties.

This Ashram has nurtured the traditiona cultures of these tribes of fourteen types. They all have been given a single platform for showing their talent to village and urban people. Tribal children are very good in Archery. They all are made to practice for Archery everyday. About 10-12 students are selected by National Archery department for further training and education.

The work done by the Ashram is simply a demonstration of the change brought by a single man. Lots are needed to be done. Lets extend our hand to this Ashram by monetory or in other form of contribution. Your mere visit to this place will be blessing for the children staying in the hostel.
