A hot lunch of rice, lentils, and vegetables may seem like an afterthought for many Americans. But for countless children in India, a simple plate of rice, lentils, and vegetables can mean the difference between struggling and thriving.

Hunger steals the chance to learn, to grow, and to hope. But you can change that.

Through your support, children will be nourished, cared for, and reminded of God’s love. ❤

🙏 Will you take 5 minutes today to join this mission? Together, we can feed the deserving of India and give them the future they deserve.

💧 What if water was a luxury?

For many in India, the simple act of washing hands or filling a cup is not guaranteed—it’s a daily challenge. But thanks to your support, Calcutta Mercy is helping turn scarcity into sustainability.

Clean water means:

✔️ Better health
✔️ Safe meals
✔️ Dignity restored
✔️ Hope refreshed

It’s not just water. It’s life.

Let’s keep turning taps on—for good. 🙌

👁️ One heart, fully open.

In a crowded room, surrounded by hundreds, one girl lifts her eyes — searching, listening, longing.

What is she feeling?
Hope? Hunger? Healing?

This is the silent miracle of moments like these.
Where one heart opens.
One soul listens.
And Jesus meets them there.

At Calcutta Mercy, we believe true transformation begins within.
We’re honored to create spaces where people can hear truth, experience love, and encounter the God who sees them—even in a crowd.

Because sometimes, the loudest prayers… are silent.

💥 Meet Kuldeep — 13 years old, from Jaipur.
The middle child in a loving Hindu family, Kuldeep has carried more than just books to school—he’s carried the weight of his father's dreams.

His dad once aspired to join the police force, but when that dream didn’t work out, he became a teacher instead. Then, a tragic road accident ended his career and his ability to provide. 💔

But faith stepped in.
Kuldeep’s teacher encouraged him: “Pray to Jesus for your father.”
He did. And his father was healed. 🙏

Today, Kuldeep studies hard, plays joyfully, and dreams of serving his country as a soldier. He also has a passion for math and a quiet resilience that shines through his smile.

At Calcutta Mercy, stories like Kuldeep’s show us what’s possible when faith meets opportunity. 💫

➡️ Let’s raise a generation of healed hearts and hopeful futures.

🛑 This is what survival looks like.

In the heart of the city, among towering piles of discarded plastic, women sift through garbage just to earn enough to survive another day.

This is not their calling.
This is not their dream.
This is desperation turned into duty.

But it doesn’t have to stay this way.

At Calcutta Mercy, we believe that every life deserves dignity—not just survival. Through education, nutrition, healthcare, and the love of Jesus we’re opening doors for families trapped in cycles of poverty.

Because no one was created to live in a dump.
And every woman deserves a future filled with purpose, not plastic.

🙏 Will you help rewrite their story?

🌟 Hope has no barriers.

She came to the window seeking help—but what she found was joy, dignity, and a reminder that she matters.

In places where many only see limitation, Calcutta Mercy sees people.
And when compassion meets action, walls don’t stand a chance.

From healthcare to education, meals to prayer, we’re showing up behind every gate and every window—because hope always finds a way in. 🙏

🪖 Meet Mahindar — 8 years old.
The eldest of three, from the Banjara community in India. 🇮🇳

Life hasn’t been easy. His dad works as a day laborer, and his mom stays home to care for the family. But when his mother became seriously ill, little Mahindar did something bold…

💬 “My friends said, pray to Jesus. So I did. And my mom got better.”

Faith, for him, became personal. Powerful. Real. 🙏
Now, Mahindar has big dreams—he wants to be a soldier. He loves math, laughs over snakes & ladders, and carries a quiet strength beyond his years.

At Calcutta Mercy, we believe in every child’s potential.
Mahindar’s story reminds us: with love, education, and faith—anything is possible.

💥 Let’s raise up future leaders, one life at a time.

💧 Joy in the midst of struggle.

This young girl gathers water in the slums of Kolkata, her smile shining brighter than the harsh surroundings around her. Life here isn’t easy—daily challenges like clean water, food, and shelter are very real.

But where the world sees poverty, we see potential.
Where others see despair, we witness dignity.
And where there's brokenness, Jesus brings healing.

Through Calcutta Mercy, we’re working every day to bring education, meals, healthcare, and the message of Christ to children and families just like hers.

Because every life is sacred.
And every smile matters.

Join us in making hope contagious.

🌅 Meet Poorva
At just 10 years old, her name—which means “East”—symbolizes a new dawn. ✨

Growing up in Jaipur, the youngest of three, life hasn’t been easy. Her father, once a teacher, left the family when she was only six. Since then, her mother—a hairdresser—has carried the weight of the world on her shoulders. 💔

But Poorva’s story doesn’t end there.
At school, she heard stories about Jesus—and something stirred in her heart. In the midst of hardship, she found hope. In the face of loss, she chose faith. 🙌

Today, she walks forward with joy, strength, and a smile that speaks volumes.
She reminds us that the light of mercy shines brightest in the darkest places. 🌟

➡️ Join us in bringing light, love, and education to more children like Poorva.
Calcutta Mercy is here—one life at a time.

A few years ago, 11-year-old Rasiya found safety and hope at one of our schools.

After her brothers were tragically sold by her father, her grandmother brought her to one of our Calcutta Mercy Schools in search of a future.

She arrived afraid — but found healing through the kindness of her teachers, the gift of dance, and a community that became family. 🩰

✨ "When I began to dance, I found happiness," she said.

Today, children like Rasiya continue to discover hope and purpose — and it's only possible because of people like you.
