Dipans Foundation Of Education & Hope

You can find us at Daitary Nayak’s place in Beura Sahi, which is in Choudwar. We use a part of the house as our office for the foundation. It’s a simple building in a quiet neighborhood where everyone knows each other. We focus on education and hope, so we have a lot of books and school supplies stacked up in the corners. The rooms are a bit small, but we’ve managed to fit in three desks and a few chairs. We don't have any air conditioning, so we keep the windows wide open to catch the breeze. You can hear the sounds of the town from here, like the occasional motorbike or the neighbor's radio. We start our work early in the morning and usually wrap up by sunset. The team is just a few of us who live nearby. We spend our time planning lessons or looking for ways to help the local students with their studies. Sometimes we have parents come by to talk about their children’s future. We just sit and have a chat over some tea. It’s not a corporate environment at all. We don’t have fancy brochures or expensive signs. There is just a small wooden board outside the door with our name on it. We do our work with what we have and don't worry too much about being polished or perfect. It’s about the people here in Choudwar and trying to give them a bit more to look forward to every day.
