EBU Founder Visits Vivekananda Vidyapith, Kolkata, to Inspire Young Learners

24th November 2025

At East Bridge University, we are constantly reminded that education carries its greatest meaning when it reaches those who need it most. This belief came alive once again during our recent visit to Vivekananda Vidyapith in Kolkata — a visit led by our Founder, Dr Sanjib Chakraborty, whose lifelong dedication to education continues to guide our mission and inspire our community.

 

The student showed enthusiasm and eagerness throughout the entire visit, which reaffirmed our commitment to SDG 1: No Poverty and SDG 4: Quality Education, which shape every initiative we pursue — both within and beyond our classrooms.

 

A Day of Inspiration and Learning

 

During the visit, Dr Chakraborty spent time interacting with the students, answering their questions, listening to their dreams, and encouraging them to imagine a world where education could take them anywhere they wish to go. The children’s excitement reminded us why our mission must extend beyond higher education — it must reach the roots where the desire to learn first begins.

 

We saw firsthand how powerful simple words of encouragement can be, especially for children navigating economic and social challenges. As Dr Chakraborty shared,

“Every child deserves the chance to learn and grow.”

This message, sincere and heartfelt, resonated deeply with the students and teachers alike.

 

Support That Extends Beyond Words

 

We believe that learning thrives when children feel secure, nourished, and cared for. As part of our visit, we provided nutritious food and essential supplies to support the overall well-being of the students. For many families, access to these resources can make a meaningful difference, giving children the stability they need to stay focused on their education.

 

These acts may seem small, but they carry profound significance. They reflect our belief that quality education requires more than classrooms and curricula — it requires compassion, shared responsibility, and community engagement.

 

Strengthening Our Commitment to SDG 1 and SDG 4

 

This visit is a milestone that transforms our ideas of ending poverty through quality into real-life actions. SDG 1 and SDG 4 are not abstract goals for us; they are guiding pillars that shape our outreach programs, scholarships, and community partnerships.

 

Through initiatives like this, we aim to break down the barriers that keep many children from pursuing education — whether those barriers are financial, social, or environmental. Each child we engage with reminds us why inclusive education must remain at the heart of everything we do.

 

Education With Purpose, Community With Heart

 

This visit to Vivekananda Vidyapith is one of many steps in the university’s ongoing effort to bridge education with community wellbeing.

 

And as we continue to grow as a global institution, we remain grounded in the belief that knowledge is most powerful when shared, and education is most transformative when it uplifts entire communities.

 

Because at East Bridge University, we don’t just teach — we stand with learners, we listen to them, and we walk beside them on their journey toward a brighter, more empowered future.
