Give things, not only moneyDonate clothes and dry food in Siliguri — all year round.
Humrahi collects clothes and sealed, in-date dry food at our Siliguri collection point through the year, not only while an emergency appeal is running. If you have a bag of warm clothes sitting unused, this page tells you exactly what we can take, what we can't, and where to bring it.

Send what you would hand to a neighbour
What we can't accept
- Clothes that are torn or damp — wet cloth cannot be handed to a family.
- Cooked meals and leftovers.
- Food that has been opened, or is past its date.
None of this is fussiness. Everything that arrives is sorted by hand and passed on to a family, so anything that cannot be passed on has to be thrown away by us instead of by you.

When there's an emergency, this is where it goes
Year-round collection and emergency relief use the same door. When an appeal is running, what comes in is channeled there first — right now that is the 2026 Assam flood relief drive, coordinated from this same Siliguri office. That page also lists the extra items the appeal is taking, and has a printable courier label if you can't reach Siliguri yourself.
Between appeals, the same clothes and sealed dry food go into our ongoing work in and around Siliguri. If you'd rather give money than goods, the donate page takes one-time and monthly gifts, with an 80G receipt emailed automatically.
Donating goods — common questions
How do I donate clothes in Siliguri?
Wash them, fold them, and bring only what is whole — nothing torn, nothing damp. Everyday wear in every size is welcome, along with sweaters and jackets, blankets and shawls, pants and bottoms, scarves and dupattas, and children's clothes and warmers. Bring the bundle to our collection point at Parameshwar Niwas, Gudiya Jote, Matigara, Siliguri, Darjeeling district, West Bengal 734010. Please call +91 80018 80016 before you come so someone is there to receive the load, or email wecare@myhumrahi.org and we will arrange a pickup.
Can I donate excess food?
Sealed, in-date dry food only — packaged staples that still open safely days later. Cooked meals and leftovers cannot be accepted, and neither can anything already opened or past its date. Drop it at Parameshwar Niwas, Gudiya Jote, Matigara, Siliguri, Darjeeling district, West Bengal 734010 after calling +91 80018 80016.

Do you accept cooked food?
No. Cooked meals and leftovers cannot be accepted, and neither can food that has been opened or is past its date. Sealed, in-date dry food is welcome on the same terms as clothes. If what you want is to help feed people, a donation to our work in Siliguri is the faster way to do it.
Do you collect clothes all year, or only during a flood appeal?
All year. Humrahi collects clothes and sealed, in-date dry food at the Siliguri collection point through the year, not only while an emergency appeal is running. When an appeal is active — such as the 2026 Assam flood relief drive — what comes in is channeled there first.
