KMM Community CARE
KMM’s Developmental Goal is not a trickle down approach from the top but it is a Grassroot Movement by the grassroot people. From the very inception KMM trained the community people in leadership, Community care and through several seminar, modular trainings and conferences to equip, empower and sustain the community.
KMM community meet the people, live with them, work with them, start with what they have and what they know, plan and develop together with co-operation. This participation evokes involvement of the community in the decision making process of implementation of developmental work. KMM community is no judge or critique to any approach that is concern with development. KMM’s effort is in bottom-up planning. We believe in people centred development. We engage ourselves to involve the community in decision making about the implementation of process, programs and projects that affect them.
KMM Marriage & Parenting Seminar :
KMM organise Marriage Seminar where participants from 12 districts (namely Darjeeling, Jalpaiguri, Alipurduar, Coochbehar, North Dinajpur, Malda, Murshidabad, Birhum, West Midnapur, Kolkata, Howrah, South 24th Pargana) of West Bengal attended the seminar. The present day scenario is not at all inspiring. Due to the change in the socio-economic conditions in the society the smallest unit is succumbing to pressure from all sides. Domestic violence are increasing, the gap between husband-wife, parents-child are widening. Alcoholism, reluctant to look after once own family, abandonment, divorce are creating havoc in the community. Thus KMM conduct Marriage and Parenting Seminar from time to time where all the participants acknowledged that they are immensely blessed by the teachings, activities, group discussion and dialogue, encouraging each other through life testimonies.

Relief Work- Stretching out our hands :
“Whoever has this world’s goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him?”
KMM assists in times of distress and calamity such as the frequent floods and earthquakes that affect the region. West Bengal is a state in India, which is prone to flood each year due to monsoonal rain. Few districts are badly affected by the yearly sorrow of flood and the district of West Midnapur is one of them.
Each year in the during the monsoonal month, under the leadership of few brothers of West Mindapur KMM serve the affected areas and people. KMM Relief team comprising of 35 members carries forward the assistance work. Before that the KMM team did a survey work to find out the most distressed and needy families in that situation.
Normally base on our capacity we could reach 500 families and distribute the Relief packets containing essential items like rice, edible oils, pulses, baby food, few clothes, and some daily essential toilets items.
