Who we are ?

With the busy schedule of life, many times felt an urge to do something which can satisfy myself from the bottom of my heart. But could not happen as life was changing so fast. But the day has come when thought to decide to do something positive in life which could help others specially those who are deprived and cant fulfil their dreams due to lack of proper knowledge and about their basic rights. At this juncture of life we formed Goodturn Charitable Trust with few friends who were thinking the same. But now we are not few in numbers, now we are a team and working as a team. We are working for the underprivileged people and trying to change their lives by empowering them, by providing them educational and medical support. If someone gets anything from society he or she will also return to the society and it balances the cycle of life. Humanity brought all of us here to serve the society. We could now think of a better society the way we have stepped forward with positive minded people. I request all of you to come forward and support us, help us to help others.

"Change is the only constant" - we all are aware about this phrase, but there is a certain portion of our society, for whom there is no change in their daily routine! Days in and days out, still their life struggle remain the same. They struggle for their daily food, daily wear, basic education, and a hygienic life style. And the other portion of this society have all these in excess. This distinct disparity has always shaken me up and I felt an urge to do something for these underprivileged people. But there remains a very little scope to contribute when you are alone. But when you find few similar mentality people in one place, who feel the same like you and have the intention to give back something to the society from which we are earning our daily livelihood, you get United as a team and form a group to stand by that underprivileged section, who needs a bit attention from you. We, the Good Turners try to do that only - to extend our helping hands to those people who are tired with their boring daily struggle, and to bring a sense of relief and smile on their faces. And those smiling faces and the joyous gestures give us that immense satisfaction, which can not be achieved just by enjoying ourselves. Our motto is to show them the day in a bit different way, by means of some good nutrition, decent clothes, and a chance to study so that they can lay the foundation of their lives. For this, we need people like you, who, by the mercy of God, have the ability to extend the required helping hand to pull these people from the darkness and drive them towards brightness, which is the basic right of all human being. I urge you all to be our patron and help us to fulfill our mission in terms of feeding the unfed, giving clothes to the needy, and facilitating education for the children who are the future of our society.

“You only live once”, that is why we should cherish every moment and lead our life in such a way so that we feel proud of ourselves. But as a human being shouldn’t we do anything for the society? Humanity is the basic principle of all religions and this principle has brought all of us under one roof and we formed the Goodturn Charitable Trust. Our main focus is rural community. We wish to extend our hands towards those underprivileged people who wish to fulfil their dreams and those who dreams for a good life and a good society. Our aim is to aware people and uplift their living condition by giving them right education, right care and right protection. The environment, the society, the values our forefathers gifted us, should be passed on to our next generation. We are grateful that we got an opportunity that we could think of others for making a better society. And few hands joined us to think about betterment of society. Lets come and join hands to take an oath to set afoot into a new society where there is no hunger, no illiteracy and no unemployment. “We are the change and we could change”.But as a human being shouldn’t we do anything for the society?

Humanity is the mother of all religions. In fact there is no higher religion than human service. To work for common good is the greatest creed. The best way to find ourselves is lose ourselves in the service. Our purpose of life is to work selflessly for the progress of humanity associated with love, compassion, right conduct, truthfulness and sympathy. A good thought has the capability of changing the whole world. So we stepped forward out of our lives to lit a candle in the darkest moments of others life and formed the Goodturn Charitable Trust. We empower people which could help them to fulfill their dreams and live their life happily. We make a living by what we get but we make a life by what we give.

As a Treasurer of Good Turn Charitable Trust, I am pleased to share a brief overview of our financial stewardship and express my sincere appreciation for the trust and generosity that fuel our mission.

Over the past year, we have worked diligently to ensure that every contribution - big or small - is used responsibly and transparently to support our core programs. Our commitment to financial accountability remains strong, and we continue to operate with a clear focus on maximizing impact while minimizing overhead.

Regular audits, clear reporting, and transparent budgeting are central to our financial operations as we know every expense is a reflection of our values. We believe that openness builds trust, and we are always ready to engage with our members and donors regarding the use of funds and the sustainability of our initiatives. In these years we maintained full compliance with all legal and financial regulations and conducted an independent audit to uphold transparency.

Past few years have been both challenging and inspiring for us. Despite many challenges, global events like Covid, we have remained steadfast in our mission to provide our support to underprivileged children & women in rural Bengal, worked together to fulfil the dream of one of our popular project "Empowerment for Sustainable development”.

Looking ahead, we are committed to not only sustaining our programs but expanding them. But this is only possible with your continued support—whether it’s through donations, volunteering, or simply spreading the word about what we do.

I extend my heartfelt gratitude to each one of you - our members, partners, volunteers, and supporters - for being here and for your unwavering dedication to our mission. Together, we are not just managing funds - we are building futures. With your continued support, we look forward to create even greater impact in the year ahead.

You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us. And the world will live as one. -John Lennon

In our life span dreams are very much important to move forward. It keeps us positive and gives us strength to fight with the difficulties. So, yes I'm a dreamer and to some extent emotional also. I can't  do my duties without getting involved, I can't  take decisions only with the brain and neglect my heart, I can't  be that much rational and logical to take steps which will benefit me. 

The society in which we are living nowadays,has gradually become a prison for every one.  Whether  be the prison of luxury and self centeredness,  or the prison of poverty and exploitation. The discrimination is so ugly and  pathetic, that a person who has a minimum sense of humanity can't  stand it at all. So obviously like many others, I also thought of doing  something  for those who are in need, within my capacity. Then I found some people who also has the same dream and mentality like me.  I found " Good Turn Charitable Trust "

Yes, it doesn’t  have a huge bank balance  or a furnished office like other NGOs but, it has the same dream of equality, dream of woman empowerment, dream of helping others to the last extent. So I chose them, and am feeling very proud and happy to be one of them. Helping the weak one is not only our motto but to make them strong and self dependent is our ultimate target. So that they also  can help others and raise their hand for the needy . Only this way, we can minimise the discrimination and injustice in our society. 

চলে যাব- তবু আজ যতক্ষণ দেহে আছে প্রাণ

প্রাণপণে পৃথিবীর সরাব জঞ্জাল,

এ বিশ্বকে এ শিশুর বাসযোগ্য ক’রে যাব আমি

নবজাতকের কাছে এ আমার দৃঢ় অঙ্গীকার
