Towards a new horizon.
TOREE is a registered welfare society in Kolkata, working since 2015 with underprivileged children and rural communities across West Bengal, through education, relief, and the everyday work of care.
What we do
Six commitments, one mission.
What started as a small circle of homemakers meeting informally in September 2015 has grown into a full-fledged welfare society. Every initiative below traces back to the same idea: showing up, consistently, for people who are too often overlooked.
Education
The Bidyayan Scholarship supports Higher Secondary students from rural and disadvantaged backgrounds, awarded each year since 2019.
Children
Orphans, street children and children from marginalised neighbourhoods of Kolkata join us for festivals, celebrations and creative activities through the year. We also celebrate Independence Day and Rakhi with children being treated for cancer.
Autistic young people
Drawing sessions, music and dance programmes, and festive gatherings, where autistic young people sing and play for members and families.
Rural communities
Mosquito nets, winter clothing and garments reach disadvantaged families in remote villages of South 24 Parganas and beyond, along with a sports meet for village children.
Environment
Our 'Save Green' campaign promotes water conservation, tree planting and reducing plastic waste, on the streets and on social media.
Relief work
When calamity strikes, as it did with cyclone Yaas in 2021, we distribute food, garments and essentials in the affected districts.
Pew MitraFounder and Chief Advisor, TOREEOur goal now is to widen our reach, bringing more people into our fold to share our vision, so that together we stay committed to the well-being of the weaker sections of society.
Get involved
There is always a place at the table.
Whether it is a scholarship, a set of winter clothes, or an afternoon spent with children on the streets of Kolkata, the work of TOREE happens because people choose to show up. Reach out to learn how you can help.
