Dear supporter,
It was during the same time last year that Tamil Nadu faced the worst rains. The timely supported extended by individuals like you saved many from going without food and shelter. We can’t thank you enough for your support. We have put together a month-wise update of the rehabilitation efforts in the past few months. Here’s an update for the last 3+ months.
Here's an update for the month of August to November 2016
August 2016
Major Activity- The 'Reverse Osmosis Processed Water' Plant in Murichambedu village in Ponneri Taluk was inaugurated.
The village is 20 km from the ocean and the groundwater has high salt content and is not suitable for consumption. The floods made it worse last year but now with the RO plant in their village, families have access to clean drinking water.
Good news is this progress has brought some attention to the village from the officials who have promised to take care of the installation in the nearby villages.
September- November 2016
Major activities- Painting, roofing and tables for the schools damaged in the floods
Schools in Vanipakkam, Murichambedu, Aladu, Akkarapakkam, Vembedu villages in Ponneri Taluk, Thiruvallur district, were affected by the rains last year. Roofs of the school buildings, benches and desks were damaged. Few of these schools observed lack of adequate attendance and in the rest of the schools, the students found it difficult to continue without adequate classroom resources.
Funds were utilised to repair the roof, benches and paint these schools. Below are the images taken during the painting and repair of these schools

Dear Supporter,
The work for the 'Reverse Osmosis Processed Water' Plant in Murichambedu village in Ponneri Taluk has started. The village is 20 km from the ocean and the groundwater has high salt content and is not suitable for consumption.
Kolapasi team visited few families in the village who informed that they get water once in 2-3 days through a pipeline which is supplying water to a village called Kattur. During the floods last year, the families were cut off from other villages and faced a severe water crisis. Once the RO plant is complete, the families will have access to water without having to travel to the next village.
We will share few photographs of the location and the RO plant work shortly.

Dear Supporter,
We have put together a month-wise update of the rehabilitation efforts on the ground in Tamil Nadu. Your support has made this possible and we can't thank you enough. Here's an update for the month of March, April and May
March
Major Activities- Finalising schools for distribution of books
The following schools were identified and books were distributed to the students.
April
Major Activities- Identified a village in need of help. Identified vendors for RO plant
Volunteers identified Murichambedu village in Minjur Block, Ponneri Taluk facing severe water crisis. Since the village is 20km from the ocean, the groundwater has high salt content and is no suitable for consumption. People living there has been facing water crisis for quite some time and the floods just aggravated the problem.
Kolapasi team visited the place, discussed the issues with the families living there. The villagers have proposed for a ‘Reverse Osmosis Processed Water Plant’ which will solve their water crisis. We reached out few vendors for the RO commissioning and received estimates for the same.
May
Major Activities- Finalised the Vendor, Transfer of funds (In process)
A vendor has been identified for the RO plant commissioning. We have received an estimate. We are in the process of finalizing the dates of commissioning the plant. We will keep you posted about the transfer of funds towards the vendor and will be sharing an update once the commissioning begins.
Invoices for every transfer made towards relief efforts are shared here
