With a vision to thrive as a non-profit, "Poorba" is making the stand alone as the foremost organization of all the Bengalis in San Joaquin County.

As an Organization we are driven to promote the rich and vibrant culture of the Bengal and North East India here in the United States, as well as work hand in glove with the local communities to serve and give back to the people from all ethnic backgrounds.
