ABOUT US
Nafisa Educational and Welfare Trust (NEWT) is a non-profit organization (NGO) based in Patna, a populated city in Bihar, India. NEWT addresses the concern of welfare for the residents in the city. Many lack the privilege to obtain clean food, water, clothes, and shelter on a daily basis. We work with the members community to ensure residents are able to get a hold of such necessities such as by distributing home-cooked meals, raising money to create shelters, and further noble efforts. We also work to ensure that every child receives their deserved right to education despite living in impoverished situations.

OUR GOALS
EDUCATION:
Most importantly, NEWT continuously empowers today's youth- who he trusts will excel and lead the world towards morality. The Nafisa Educational Public School has been established to secure the right each child has to complete their education, especially if immersed in impoverishment and difficult situations. To grow as people in professional settings, NEWT arranges national integration camps, inter state youth exchange programs, multi-cultural activities, leadership training camps, and opportunities for research and publication so that each child can grow in the educational realm. These programs encourage the social and emotional development of these children so they can thrive in society.
ADOPTION/ CHILD CARE:
The pandemic has taken a severe toll on the health of children. It is crucial that no child is left behind- the motivation of NEWT's goals. NEWT works to adopt integrated child development services through supplementary nutrition, non-formal pre-school education, and necessary immunizations with health check-ups. The purpose of the programs are for these children, especially those orphaned or with special needs, to receive re-habilitation through in-country adoption.
WOMENS' RIGHTS:
In addition, NEWT works with the community to fight for women's human rights. He organizes women welfare programs, job-oriented training camps, vocational training centers, facilities of short stay homes, and hostel buildings with day care centers to provide safe havens for women and girls. He also works for the rehabilitation of sex workers, children of sex workers, widows, children, and women who have been victims of physical violence and sexual abuse. Empowering women through advocacy of gender issues equality is crucial towards the integrated society NEWT is working to achieve.
