The Vikash Educational Charitable Trust (VECT) has worked in Odisha, India since 1993, supporting academically talented but economically disadvantaged students in a region where poverty rates far exceed national averages.
Founded by former Indian Revenue Service official Sri Subhas Chandra Choudhury, VECT aims to bring transformational change to underprivileged families and communities through education — employing retired administrators and community volunteers.
