                   Join us in our mission to protect and preserve the majestic Sundarbans, home to the mighty mangroves and vibrant wildlife. Since our inception in 2018, a group of 5+  Educated friends, driven by their personal experiences and concern for future generations, have dedicated themselves to making a difference.

Our Story Begins:

Growing up in the Sundarbans, our founders witnessed firsthand the devastating impact of cyclones and floods on their communities. They remembered the fear, the displacement, and the struggle to recover. As they grew older, they realized that they didn't want their children and future generations to face the same challenges. This determination sparked the creation of Sukher Swarga Foundation.

Why Mangroves?

 -Mangroves are the guardians of our coastlines, providing:
- Natural barriers against cyclones, storms, and erosion
- Habitat for diverse marine life, including fish, crustaceans, and birds
- Protection of water quality by filtering pollutants and sediments
- Carbon sequestration, mitigating climate change
- We see that time the main issue is river wall and for River wall breaking river saline water comes into village and destroy years and years earnings home, garden, cultivation etc. we thought that time what should we can do it? then thought we can't make river wall as its very expensive but we have 200+ students team so why we can't do to make a green wall which is mangrove forest. from there every year these students and our team and women team have been making mangrove nursery and we are planting every year in many river bank mangrove sapling. 
 
Our Step-by-Step Approach:

1. Soil Collection: We collect soil from the riverbank to create a nurturing environment for our mangrove saplings.

2. Packet Filling: With the help of 200 students and women's groups, we fill packets with the collected soil, preparing them for sapling growth.


3. Nursery Care: We nurture the saplings in our homemade nursery, providing the necessary care and attention for 2 months.

4. Sapling Preparation: After 2 months, our saplings are strong and ready for plantation.


    5. Fencing and Plantation: Our groups fence the designated area on the riverbank and plant the saplings ensuring their protection and growth.

  ​In the heart of the Sundarbans, a place of immense beauty and persistent challenges, a new story of hope is being written. Our community, while resilient, has long grappled with limited access to quality education. But where others saw an obstacle, a group of young, passionate individuals saw an opportunity to make a difference. This is the story of Safalya Pathsala. SAFALYA PATHSALA, SANDESHKHALI SUNDARBANS  ​It all began in 2018. Led by a remarkable team of dedicated youth—28-year-old Swapan Suin( CEO), a Sukher Swarga Foundation fellow; Anirban Das, our foundation's director; Tarun Mandal, a 29-year-old from India's narcotics department; and Rudrendu Giri, a 26-year-old math teacher—Safalya Pathsala was born.

The Sundarbans is a special place, World Heritage Site/ Biosphere Reserve/ National Park/ Wildlife sanctuary/ Tiger Reserve full of amazing nature. But it's also a place that needs protection from climate change. Mangrove trees are the best natural defense, and a group called the Sukher Swarga Foundation, Top 10 Sundarban Grassroots NGO is doing incredible work to protect them. This year, 2025 the foundation has done something amazing. They grew 100,000 (one lakh) mangrove saplings in their nursery with the support of Self help Group Women till now. That's a huge number and shows just how dedicated they are to their mission. They don't just use these saplings for one thing. They have two main goals:   Helping Others : They sell a lot of their saplings to other non-profit groups (NGOs). This helps more people plant trees and protect more areas. It's a great way to work together.    Their Own Projects : They also use many of the saplings for their own planting projects. T...
