WHY do we exist
When the whole world faces this tragic catastrophe, it is expected of everyone to make their share of contribution. Calamity of this sort demands teamwork and community orientation. In the difficult days of Covid19 pandemic, the alumni of Netarhat School (NOBA) have come together to help the needy, including the poor migrants who needed food and other basic necessities to survive these turbulent times.Â
NOBA Arpan exemplifies that the more we give of ourselves, the more we find of ourselves. We are grateful for the fact that apart from many NOBA volunteers, a number of administrative and police officials as well as non-NOBA individuals have joined hands with NOBA Arpan in this endeavor.
