The Problem

Why Rural Child Education Needs Urgent Attention

In the wetlands of Bihar where our Makhana is cultivated, thousands of children of farmer families face a grim reality. Schools are miles away, classrooms lack basic infrastructure, and families struggling with poverty often pull children into farm labour. The cycle of generational poverty continues because education — the single most powerful tool to change lives — remains out of reach.

"A child without education is a bird without wings." — Tibetan Proverb

Over 60% of children in Makhana-farming families drop out before completing 8th grade. Girls are disproportionately affected, with early marriage replacing education. This is not just a statistic — it is a generation of lost potential that Urban-Gramin is determined to change.

Our Approach

How We're Transforming Lives Through Education

Our approach goes beyond building schools. We believe in holistic child development — ensuring that every child in our farming community has not just a school to go to, but the tools, nutrition, and mentorship they need to thrive.

"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." — Nelson Mandela

We work directly with village panchayats, local educators, and parents to create an ecosystem where education is valued, accessible, and impactful. Every purchase of Urban-Gramin products contributes a portion towards this initiative — making you an active participant in shaping these young lives.
