About Us
In 1969, Mrs. Kalyani Karlekar, a retired educator, initiated the Calcutta Social Project in Kolkata’s slums, distributing powdered milk from the Indian Red Cross Society.
In 1972, the Calcutta Social Project (CSP) became a registered society. As CSP distributed milk to more impoverished women, they became aware of broader issues concerning childcare, nutrition, health, and education. This interaction led to trust and cooperation between the women and CSP, fostering a shared vision for the future.
By the 1980s, CSP had developed a comprehensive set of services addressing the crucial needs of survival security: nutrition, health, education, and income generation for women from disadvantaged families, expanding its initiatives over time.
