We are dedicated to uplifting the underprivileged sections of society by promoting sustainable livelihood opportunities.

Preserving Heritage & Culture
Program Goal
To sustain the Santhal community’s traditional wall art by providing tribal youth with skills and opportunities that turn cultural preservation into a source of livelihood.
Need for the Program
With modernization, the unique artistic traditions of the Santhal tribe face the risk of fading away. Preserving this heritage is essential not only for cultural continuity but also as a sustainable livelihood avenue, allowing tribal youth to thrive while keeping their cultural identity alive.
Activities We Do
Promoting and Encouraging Traditional Art Forms: Reviving Ancient Crafts
The traditional wall art of the Santhal tribe is a treasure trove of cultural expression and storytelling. To ensure its preservation, we actively promote and encourage the practice of this art form among tribal youths. By providing training and resources, we empower them to carry forward their ancestral skills, creating beautiful paintings that reflect their rich cultural heritage. Through this initiative, we not only foster pride and cultural identity but also provide a platform for economic growth.
Fine-Tuning by Trained Professionals: Enhancing Skills and Techniques
To refine the traditional art forms, we engage trained professionals who work closely with tribal youths. These professionals provide guidance, mentorship, and technical expertise to help them develop their artistic skills. Through workshops, training sessions, and one-on-one interactions, the tribal youths gain valuable insights into various painting techniques, color combinations, and storytelling methods. This fine-tuning process adds depth and sophistication to their artwork, making it more appealing to a wider audience.
Organizing Art Exhibitions: Showcasing Talent and Generating Opportunities
To provide tribal artists with visibility and exposure, we organize art exhibitions that showcase their exceptional talent. These exhibitions serve as platforms for networking, connecting them with art enthusiasts, collectors, and potential buyers. By facilitating the sale of their artwork, we create income-generation opportunities for the tribal youths, enabling them to earn a sustainable livelihood while preserving their cultural traditions.
