Prem Kumar

Hometown:  Gonpura, India

I am Prem Kumar. I am an incoming international student at Lafayette College for the class of 2026 to pursue Mechanical Engineering. I am the son of Mr. Jitan Manjhi  and the late Kalavati Devi. I was raised and brought up in a small village named Gonpura. I had completed my primary education in an NGO, named Shoshit Seva Sangh. I had completed my high school in Shoshit Samadhan Kendra. I graduated from The Dexterity School of Leadership and Entrepreneurship in 2022. I am a founder of the Apni Shiksha Foundation. It is an educational non-profit platform for children in our country. I initiated this organization on 05 April 2020. This has impacted 10 villages

marking 200 kids from geographical areas in the districts of Bihar. My team members Anuj Kumar and Ravish Kumar are actively working as co-founders. I have a great interest in learning science projects, reading novels, practicing yoga, and playing cricket, dancing, chess, football, badminton, and basketball. I wish to become a good human being. I have the vision to be a mechanical engineer and community service leader.
