About Nowab Grammar School

Founded in 2007 by Freedom Fighter S.M. Nowab and lovingly run by his family, Nowab Grammar School is a lifeline for 218 pre-primary to Class Five students in Rajbari. Guided by nine dedicated teachers, the school serves children of local jute mill workers, small farmers, and daily wage earners surviving on just BDT 6,000–9,000 (US$ 50 - $70) a month. By providing accessible education, the school and Thrive carry forward a legacy of service while helping lift local families above economic hardship.

Why School Meals?

School meals are a vital lifeline. In the communities we serve, there is no backup—without these daily meals, hunger takes over and learning suffers. By providing reliable, daily nutrition, you fuel children’s education, support their physical and cognitive development, and help entire communities lift themselves up.
