Sponsorship of Talented Students through MUKTI

Lack of education is one of the major causes of economic backwardness and helplessness of the people in Sunderbans, similar to the poorest regions of the world. Towards a goal of eradicating illiteracy in the region, and to encourage young talented children not only to complete school with good grades but also to go for graduate studies, MUKTI has been facilitating sponsorship of talented students.

The sponsorship is designed to create a long-term relationship between the sponsor, and the students being sponsored, with MUKTI serving as a bridge between the two parties. To provide stability to the sponsored student, sponsors are requested to consider long term sponsorship over several years until these students graduate. The sponsor is given direct contact with the students through exchange of letters, and is also encouraged and invited to visit the students in person. Thus, the sponsorship of approximately Rs 5000 per student per year for student from class VIII to X and arts streat, and Rs 10,000 for students who are studing science stream and engineering. It is not only meant to provide monetary support, but also for providing moral support to the students concerned.
