Lower Grade Library

The Robert and Joyce VanDeusen Lower Grade Library

The lower grade library will be built in memory of Bob and Joyce VanDeusen, a principal and a primary grade librarian/teacher, who spent their entire lives working with and educating children. In their retirement, Bob and Joyce devoted that same effort to their grandchildren, including Shanti Bhavan’s former Manager of Support and Programs, Meg VanDeusen.

The Ashok and Anuradha Sudan Junior Playground

The Junior School Playground was graciously donated by Ashok and Anuradha Sundan.

Ashok & Anuradha Sudan feel privileged to be able to help Shanti Bhavan in furthering its mission of pulling, not only children, but entire families out of the vicious grip of poverty by providing the gift of education.
