No school. No books. No routine.
Rain destroys paper. But it shouldn’t destroy opportunity.

For many children, learning is not part of daily life especially during monsoon season, when rain damages the few materials they might have.

That’s why every Relief Kit includes a waterproof book with basic Maths, English, Bengali and health skills.
Because learning should not stop when it rains.

Help give a child a chance to learn.

A small wound should stay small.

But during monsoon season, when streets flood and everything is soaked in dirty water, small wounds can quickly turn into serious infections.

That’s why every Relief Kit includes a First Aid Kit with antiseptic, bandages and sterile gauze.

Simple tools that stop a small injury from becoming something much worse.

Help stop infections before they start. | 5€ = 1 Relief Kit 💛

When the rains come, mosquitoes come with them.

For families living in fragile shelters, there are no barriers. No protection.

Each kit includes an XL mosquito net (1.80m x 2.10m), designed to cover an entire family. Durable, practical, and made to last up to 2 years, or longer with care.

It’s a simple line of defence.
And sometimes, that line changes everything.

Monsoon rain is relentless.
For families living in fragile shelters, it means water inside their homes. Wet floors. Damaged belongings. No dry place to sleep.

Each Relief Kit includes a 2m x 3m heavy-duty plastic roof sheet. Selected for its high quality in the local wholesale market and validated by the families who rely on it, it is designed to last up to two years.

A simple solution but one that makes a measurable difference: keeping homes dry, protecting essentials, and improving daily living conditions during the monsoon.

Staying dry is not a small thing.

Stand with families this monsoon.

Since 2017, Kolkata Relief has grown from a simple request: “Help me one roof!” into a consistent effort to support families in Kolkata through monsoon season and beyond.
From delivering 2,000 kits in our first year, to improving our approach with GPS planning, surveys, and mapping, we’ve kept learning and adapting.
During Covid, we expanded our response through food, hygiene, and prevention support, and began our partnership with Little Big Help.

In 2022, we opened the Bichali Ghat Community Centre with Y East, strengthening year round community support.

In 2026, we’re aiming for our next milestone: supporting 10,000 families since 2017. Thank you for being part of this story!

In this post, we share the journey of Sabina*, one of the girls who comes to our Community Centre in Kolkata. Her story is not about a miracle moment. It is about what can happen when a child has a safe routine, trusted adults to talk to, and a place where she is encouraged to learn, play, and simply be herself.

At Kolkata Relief, our Community Centre is based in a neighbourhood facing both poverty and recurring floods. During the monsoon, it becomes a place of protection and practical support. All year round, it offers education, emotional support, and a sense of belonging for children like Sabina.

This Christmas, we are working to keep this space stable and welcoming, so that every child who walks through the door knows: “I matter here.”

If you would like to be part of this, you can support our work through the link in our bio.
