Beneficiaries of the project: 

Ministry to the Sadri people:  People Group:   Sadri tribal people landless migrants from the State of Jharkhand, Chota Nagpur Region have settled in the Tea Estates as daily laborers in the area of Jalpaiguri and New Alipurduar Districts of West Bengal.  They are restricted from doing any other labour works apart from working in the Tea Gardens.Lack of schools within the reachable distance, their children are not able to go to schools.   Due to this varied situation school drop outs are in numerous. Children are again forced to follow the same paths as of their parents, to have a life living with restrictions, manipulations and in constant control of somebody as the family lives in the Tea Garden provided small sheds/ houses.

The Need 

The cost of education is beyond the affordability for the Sadri people. So, IEM’s main aim and objectives of this Day Care project is to help the Sadri Children to break free from their chain of bondages through education. Nurture young lives to live for a better tomorrow and to become better citizens of the country. IEM hopes that through this project the number of drop out children may reduce and embrace education for brighter future. IEM could start this DCC in August 2019.
