BRIDGE EDUCATION – FROM RAGS TO RESPECT AND HOPE
The mission in Jharkhand began in 1996, at a time when the remote villages of Ranchi, Ramgarh, and Hazaribag were severely underdeveloped—lacking electricity, transportation, and basic infrastructure. Access to education was almost nonexistent, with government schools functioning poorly or not at all. In many villages, schools were entirely absent, and the nearest educational facility was often 5 to 10 kilometers away.
