We at HOPE are both inspired and heartbroken at what our colleagues in Kolkata are dealing with during a devastating time. We wanted to share the stories of these inspirational heroes with you all, we think it shows the incredible people on the ground in Kolkata working tirelessly thanks to your donations. Our HOPE Heroes series will share thoughts and stories from our extraordinary colleagues.

Meet Soma, our first but not our only hero! It is because of people like Soma that those of us in Ireland, the UK and USA will never give up trying to help them, even in our own challenging times.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗛𝗢𝗣𝗘?

𝙎𝙤𝙢𝙖: I have worked for HOPE for 2 years & 4 months

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗶𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗶𝗻 𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲?

𝙎𝙤𝙢𝙖: When I was working with Medica super specialty hospital and very often I used to see many patients without proper treatment losing their life. Many patients were not getting admitted because of their poor financial conditions. There is always a big queue in every government hospitals for which many of the patients and family members were not offered medical consultation for better treatment and used to get return back. I was desperate to do something for them. Few years ago when my father was diagnosed as a cancer patient that time only I came to know about that with socio economic department this job can be done. That was the moment when I decided to work as a social worker.

𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗞𝗼𝗹𝗸𝗮𝘁𝗮?

𝙎𝙤𝙢𝙖: Yes, Kolkata is my home.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝘀𝘂𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆?

𝙎𝙤𝙢𝙖: Kolkata is a city of joy, city of fun. When the city become spellbound, when people of the city get scared to see other people, when joy turns into cry, it hurts. And all of a sudden the known city becomes unknown. This makes me sad.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗛𝗢𝗣𝗘 𝗘𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹?

𝙎𝙤𝙢𝙖: Since last 3 months I’ve been to many places (like Rupmari, Kumirmari, Kultali, Sulkuni, Tangramari) distributing relief to people in the areas affected by Amphan & COVID-19. I have got loads of affection, respect and blessings from each and every individual. It is feeling amazing to work for them.

𝗛𝗮𝘀 𝗖𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗔𝗺𝗽𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗱-𝟭𝟵 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆?

𝙎𝙤𝙢𝙖: Yes, during this lockdown period we passed though a very bad time where my husband did not get his proper salary which is actually remain till now.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴?

𝙎𝙤𝙢𝙖: I am a hero to my family. They really look up to my job role.

𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮 𝗺𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽?

𝙎𝙤𝙢𝙖: Pay attention to the people around you and what you can do to make their lives a little easier. An act of kindness, any simple gesture can improve someone’s day. There are many easy ways to help needy people
