West Bengal is one of the poorest areas of India.

The Santal people are of the lowest social caste and are the poorest of the poor and the most disadvantaged people of the sub-continent.

Your help can provide not only education to these children but also stop them ending up in the slums and streets of Kolkata (Calcutta).
