Desire Team Ams Foundation

We operate out of Lr. No.- 2255 in the village of Duttabarutia, which is in Murshidabad. It’s a bit of a trek to get here if you aren't from around these parts. The Desire Team Ams Foundation is really just a group of friends who grew up together in this village. We saw that a lot of the younger guys didn't have jobs or anything to do, so we started this to try and find some training or work for them. We use a small space in the village where we keep some old tools and a couple of computers that we fixed up. It’s often dusty and hot, but we spend most of our evenings there. We aren't a big charity with lots of donors. We mostly just put in our own time and whatever money we can spare. Sometimes we help with the local school repairs too. Murshidabad is a beautiful place, but it’s hard for people in villages like Duttabarutia to get ahead. We’re just trying to give them a bit of a push. We don't have any fancy brochures. If you want to know what we do, you just have to come and sit with us for an hour. It’s just about being a team and looking out for our neighbors. We do what we can, when we can. Some days it feels like we aren't making much progress, but we keep showing up anyway because nobody else is going to do it for us. It’s just a group of local guys doing our best.
