Siliguri, West Bengal A community seva initiative since 2020

We show up.
Every single day.

Humrahi means fellow traveller — the one who walks beside you, not ahead. On the ground with communities, and building what lets good work last.

01

On the Ground

Food. Cleanup. Schools. Health. Community.

Since COVID-2020: warm meals daily, cleanup drives, schools adopted, health camps, blood donation. Rain or shine.

02

Building the Ecosystem

Where sustainable businesses and communities thrive together.

A living network connecting sustainable enterprises, NGOs, and communities across Siliguri, with Humrahi working to keep those connections strong.

What we do

Three ways we show up

  • Daily hospital meals
  • Ration support
4,00,000 Meals · Since 2020 Our food distribution programme
🩺

Health & Dignity

Healthcare that comes to you. Free checkups brought into communities, and blood drives that build a culture of giving — treating care as a basic act of dignity.

A Cleaner, Greener Tomorrow

Protecting the planet and the kids who'll inherit it. Cutting plastic, recycling and upcycling waste into what's useful — and standing beside the schools we've adopted.

  • Plastic reduction
  • Recycling & upcycling
  • School adoption
5,000+ Students Supported Our school adoption programme

…and we do all of it alongside partner organisations already on the ground — holding the connections rather than sitting at the centre.

Siliguri's First Plogging Event · World Environment Day 2026

100+ volunteers.
One city.
One morning.

On June 5, 2026, Siliguri witnessed its first plogging event — volunteers cleaning railway tracks and road corridors alongside a run.

Bags of collected waste. Hands that didn't stop. Energy no brief could manufacture. This is what community looks like.

The bigger picture

A living ecosystem
for sustainable change

"Lasting change grows from the conditions inside a community — where people, businesses, and purpose find each other and stay."

Humrahi began by feeding people in a crisis. But the crisis revealed something deeper: communities that endure aren't the ones with the most help from outside — they're the ones with an ecosystem around them.

We are building that ecosystem in Siliguri and beyond. A network where sustainable enterprises thrive, support each other, and grow alongside the communities they serve. Where waste becomes livelihood. Where an NGO's reach doubles because someone is working alongside them.

The pieces connect. A warm meal opens the door; a cleanup drive clears the ground; an adopted school keeps a child in class; a health camp keeps a family earning; and a local enterprise turns that momentum into a livelihood that lasts. Each piece makes the next one possible.

Humrahi works at the edges of this network rather than its centre, holding the connections together and staying present, consistent, and accountable.

Sustainable Businesses

We connect businesses operating sustainably to communities and markets that need them.

NGO Collaboration

We add ground presence and community networks to missions other NGOs already lead, so their reach goes further.

Waste Upcycling

Turning waste into value — livelihoods and closing the loop on how communities consume.

Community Infrastructure

Food, schools, health — the foundations without which no ecosystem holds.

Five years, in pictures

Everything we've done,
in motion

Food, blood, schools, a greener city: five years of just turning up. Pick a thread, or watch it all drift by.

Partners & CSR

We go further together

Our work happens alongside blood banks, businesses and fellow NGOs. Their support — and yours — is what keeps the kitchens and camps running.
