Maa Durga Shiksha Seva Sansthan is a social welfare organisation based in Basti, Uttar Pradesh, working since 2008 to build a more aware, educated and empowered community through grassroots initiatives in education, public awareness and social development.
Who we are
For more than a decade, our organisation has worked quietly and consistently at the grassroots level — bringing awareness, encouraging education and standing with the people of Basti through everyday, practical engagement rather than one-off events.
Every initiative we take up is guided by a simple belief: that lasting social change grows out of education, honest awareness and the confidence of ordinary people to participate in their own community's progress. This is the thread that runs through our work in schools, in awareness camps and in everyday conversations with families across the region.
Alongside our awareness programmes, we operate Pashupati Nath Inter College in Bakhariya Koni, Bankati, Basti — treating education as one of the most direct and dependable ways to strengthen a community from within.
