Extension of the sanitary facilities in the Piarist hostel in Kamda (Jharkhand, India)
The Piarist Vice-Province of India, a foundation of the Order of the Pious Schools, operates under the Sat Guru Charitable Trust. Over the years, our commitment to education and piety has seen the establishment of three schools and a dormitory, serving over 2,000 students.
One of our key institutions, the Kamda school, was founded by a dedicated Spanish Piarist missionary about 20 years ago. Initially, the school started with 200 primary students and 20 dormitory residents. Today, the Kamda school has expanded to accommodate students from Lower Kindergarten to the tenth grade, with a current enrollment of 452 students. Despite the challenges, we continue to grow and serve our community.
