Changing Lives Through Relief And Skills

At B. Ghose Foundation, we aim to uplift marginalised communities, especially women not just by charity, but by empowering them to become financially and holistically independent and in turn advance society as a whole. Here is a glimpse of what we have been up to.

Our Programmes

Ujjayini

Under this banner, BGF aims to empower marginalised women through skill development. Our recent program “Waste to Wonders” in collaboration with Prahnaaya Clothing helped women gain skills and income to make articles for sale using repurposed and fabric waste in Bishnupur, Ektara and Sonarpur.

Prarambha

We provide care for the elderly by organising nutrition drives at old age homes like Nibedita Elderly Home, where we distribute food and organise cultural integration functions.

Susastha

BGF consistently organises health and eye check-up camps in various parts of the state for those in need of basic healthcare and unable to procure it. So far we have helped 500 families and counting through this initiative.

Naba Alok

In a joint effort with Rotary Club of Calcutta and R.N. Tagore Hospital, BGF supported the heart surgery of 4 patients including 2 newborn babies with congenital heart defects.

Parinirman

After the devastating effects of Cyclone Amphan, we promptly & Snes organised relief and outreach programs to uplift affected communities with food drives and by rebuilding homes.

Tika Sutra

BGF organised vaccination drive in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic and aided in vaccinating 100 beneficiaries for free for both doses in this challenging time.

Annapurna

Our regular food and nutrition drives ranging from the distribution of basic rations to juices and glucose (with Dabur) and clothes have so far helped thousands of people, and we hope to keep increasing the scale of this initiative in the future.

Kamalini (New)

Adolescent girls in India are being forced to drop out of school for reasons ranging from early marriagand domestic works. We at BGF want to fundamentally change the way society views women. We aim to make education of women a priority by funding their education.

Join our cause

In the past couple of years, we have grown our presence and outreach exponentially and helped the people in our community in various facets of life. This, however, is the mere start of our exciting story, and we hope you’ll become a part of it.

Bimalendu Ghose Foundation (BGF)
Empowering Generations, Changing Lives

The Bimalendu Ghose Foundation (BGF) stands as a beacon of hope and opportunity, embodying the legacy of an exceptional entrepreneur and philanthropist, Bimalendu Ghose. Founded on the auspicious occasion of Bimalendu Ghose’s birthday, the foundation cherishes and extends his core values of compassion, dedication, and empowerment.

Bimalendu Ghose, an individual deeply connected to his granddaughters, epitomized the essence of balancing a bustling entrepreneurial life with quality time spent with loved ones. His commitment to fostering relationships and his altruistic nature led to the genesis of the BGF, aiming to perpetuate his love and dedication towards uplifting society.

At its heart, the Bimalendu Ghose Foundation centers its efforts on empowering the girl child. Recognizing the prevalent disparity in Northern India, where the preference for educating the boy child often overshadows the girl child, especially within financially constrained families, BGF steps in to alleviate this burden. The foundation is committed to securing resources for the education, healthcare, and skill development of girls, fostering their self-sufficiency and independence.

Moreover, the Foundation extends its support to marginalized communities during crises, facilitating redevelopment and rehabilitation efforts. By advocating for and actively supporting the education and growth of the girl child, the BGF seeks to uplift a doubly marginalized segment of society, breaking the cycle of inequality and empowering future generations.

A pivotal cause close to the Foundation’s heart is the fundraising for heart operations for children afflicted with congenital heart diseases. The urgency in treating these conditions is paramount, as timely intervention can offer these children a chance at a full and healthy life.

Committed to its enduring impact, the Bimalendu Ghose Foundation has laid down legal protocols to ensure its perpetuity. With a robust structure in place, the Foundation is designed to transcend generations, safeguarding the continuity of its noble mission. Family members are poised to step into official roles, preserving the legacy and carrying forth the Foundation’s impactful work.

In essence, the Bimalendu Ghose Foundation stands as a testament to the vision and compassion of a remarkable individual. Through its multifaceted initiatives, the Foundation continues to transform lives, advocate for gender equality, and provide hope and opportunity for generations to come.
