SHIKSHANA GANGA TRUST

BOARD OF TRUSTEES

“If you are planning for a year, sow rice; if you are planning for a decade, plant trees; if you are planning for a lifetime, educate people.” - Chinese proverb

What can be a better way to pay back to the society than contributing in educating its future? The children of today are the future of tomorrow. There is nothing more gratifying than educating and empowering the next generation- the builders of our nation.

M.P Umesh

Founder and Chairman
The Founder of Shikshana Ganga Trust is a commerce graduate from Mangalore University and a true visionary. Jnana Ganga Central School is his brainchild and he continues to guide the policies and philosophy behind the functioning of the school. He actively participates in the day-to-day activities of the school and plays a crucial role in the administration. Concerned at the lack of high quality schooling experience with state-of-the-art infrastructure and well-trained teachers in the region, it was his dream to uplift and empower the people of our town that led him to establish a school that provides an environment for the holistic development of children.
