About Us


This was a time when these youths started feeling a pinch at their pocket and realised the need to apply for a registration and form a body to carry on with their endeavour to reach out to the wider section of humanity, especially where the government activities have been found to be less than sufficient. Around this time 7 out of 10 members were very enthusiastic about the future prospect with a view that any new organization has to spend on its own to embark on its philanthropic venture while the rest was not so optimistic maintaining that merely donating personally on behalf of the members from their salary or pocket money could not take any voluntary organization to any considerable distance. Among these difference of opinions registration ws obtained on 7th May,2013, the named of the organization being North Dum Dum Education and Welfare Society (NDEWS).


The organization has at present 22 members of whom only 5 are fully employed and are the regular source of funds. The remaining 17 are either unemployed students or private tutors. It is, therefore, quite difficult to come to the help of the people in in need with just pocket money. Still, they have the heart, big enough, to think for others and translate those thoughts into action.

NDEWS believes that the long term sustainability of the organization depends on its success to create employment opportunities for the victimised people. Although it is in conversation with placement agencies and different govt bodies, mere dependence on them is not enough. It needs, perhaps, a business model / proposal / alternative for providing these people, trained through NDEWS, some platforms to operate their business and to have a better way / soure of earning income. At the same time its a revenue model needed for NDEWS to support these activities. All the solutions should be feasible and implementable.

our Activities


The first major contribution was during the Aila in 2009 when a few of them went to remote villages of Sunderban areas like Hingalgunge, Daspara, Sardarpara in North 24 Parganas with relief. This was something that brought them to the direct contact of the suffering humanity at large. The catastrophe moved them in an affirmative way : they started nurturing bigger dreams. The next target aimed at was to cater to the medical need of the people. In the next few years, large scale health camp with day-to-day pathological tests, eye-camps and cataract operation that culminated in making arrangements for open heart surgery were carried out.
