In Purulia district talking with Pappu about our outreach programme, supporting families with disabled children who have no access to orthopaedics and disability information.

Such experiences can often be overwhelming, wrapped in feelings of sympathy, but meeting the team at Shuktara Cakes was empowering. Their confidence in their skin unknowingly urged us to look past their struggle and see the inspirational, independent humans they have become :)

The camaraderie between Raja, Sanjay, Rajesh, Ashok, Raja & Pappu who all share jokes in sign language is just like the one found in childhood friends.

This year, May 18 is marked as the Global Accessibility Awareness Day, focusing on inclusion of people who live with disabilities or impairments. A huge shoutout to David and Pappu for starting Shuktara Cakes, a patisserie to empower young adults with disabilities who have been orphaned or abandoned. With the help of the French restaurateur Alain Cojean and the Executive Pastry Chef of Fauchon in Paris, Fabien Rouillard, Shuktara Cakes is known for their freshly baked madeleines and financiers. (You can order cakes and support them at +91 98743 49175)

Bonus : Our personal fav picks are Madeleines, Orange/ Mosambi poppy seed cake and chocolate financiers ;)

It has come to our attention that small groups of men and women in and around Kolkata are receiving cash donations, claiming to be collecting on behalf of Shuktara.

These people are not associated with our organisation. Please note, Shuktara will never ask for cash donations.

If you come across any such activity, please let us know as soon as possible.
We are about to launch an online channel in India through which you can directly donate to Shuktara, receive your tax receipts and be assured that your money will be put to good use.

Thank you for your continuing to support us.

At shuktara in Kolkata we have been very blessed with facilities like the schools our young people attend, the doctors that we have access to and most importantly the support of friends and a group of staff, headed by Pappu, who work 24/7 365 days a year.
As we saw during lockdown and after the two cyclones there are others who do not have similar access to the same facilities that are available to us in the city.
Pappu has been finding out about them and yesterday he visited 14 families in the Purulia district of West Bengal, which is outside of Kolkata, to see what help and assistance we at shuktara can give to disabled children and young people who live with their families but don't have the same access to the care and support that we are so lucky to have.
Tomorrow he is going back to visit another 10 families.
Here are some photos from yesterday of Rohit, Tanzim, Namita, Santaram and Sunita

We have another Puja at Lula Bari.
This is Puja Basak who has been living alone in a small room after the death of her parents.
The other residents from her building who have been looking after her got in touch with Pappu as the landlord wants to rent the room.
Some of them came along with Pappu to see Lula Bari and Puja is happy to be here with the rest of the shuktara family to start a new life which will be a little more busy than it has been for her living alone in her small room.
We look forward to seeing her thrive.
