CALCUTTA CONNECT

Calcutta Connect is a charitable organisation that partners with local groups to deliver sustainable change through education, vocational training and community development. By operating a strict 100 % model, every public donation is channelled straight into the projects they support, while administrative costs are covered by separate funding streams. This transparent approach enables donors to see the direct impact of their contributions on children and young people from under-privileged backgrounds.

The charity works closely with its local partner, PRDS, to run education centres in three rural villages, where school-building and renovation programmes have created brighter, safer learning environments. Daily programmes provide classroom teaching, vocational skills and extra support for older students facing barriers to completing their studies. In addition, Calcutta Connect offers targeted student-support initiatives that help young adults progress to further education or training, empowering them to build a better future for themselves and their families.

Through these focused activities, Calcutta Connect demonstrates how collaborative, community-led projects can transform marginalised communities, giving donors confidence that their monthly gifts are making a tangible, lasting difference.
