WHO WE ARE

People, Purpose & Community

Every great organization begins with a purpose. Ours was born from compassion during one of the most devastating floods to affect rural Howrah in 1978.

As local volunteers worked tirelessly to support flood-affected families, they discovered that rebuilding lives required more than emergency relief. Communities needed education, livelihoods, healthcare, and opportunities to become self-reliant.

Inspired by this vision, Village Welfare Society was officially established in 1982 with a mission to create sustainable social change at the grassroots level.
