Gopali Ashram Project visit @ 4th April '10

Gopali Ashram is a service project situated 3 kms from IIT Kharagpur. The project consists of Hostel/Orphanage, School, Library, Charitable Dispensary, Goshala (cowshed) and Lord Shiva Temple. Currently there are 29 children in the hostel (most of them are destitute, orphans or tribals).

Gopali Ashram is planning to increase this number to 50 (hostel has the capacity of 100 children). For this, the infrastructure needs to be improved. We should help them in their noble plan so that more needy children can get “Roti, Kapda, Makaan aur Shiksha” (food, clothing, shelter and education).


Interested people can join us on our visit to Gopali Ashram to see the project and meet the children over there.


Time: 05:00pm
Date: 4th April 2010 (Sunday)
Meeting point: Insti Foyer (Main Building)
