About us
Maa Israji Devi Mahavidyalaya
“Educate a boy and you have created a wage earner; educate a girl and you have ensured the future generations will be educated.” In the eastern part of Uttar Pradesh, India, young rural girls seldom go to school past middle school. Villagers hesitate to send young girls approaching puberty to schools with co-education. With little or no infrastructure to provide regular transportation, they are confined to house chores and farm work and usually get married at an early age. More than 60% of girls in rural eastern Uttar Pradesh marry before the age of 18.
Education is the most powerful tool for empowerment. Our mission is to provide quality education specially to under-privileged rural persons.
The objective of Maa Israji Devi Mahavidyalaya is to produce graduates from the rural area who become intellectually, emotionally, socially and spiritually competent individuals capable of competing for higher accomplishments in life.
