Bihar reeling under, the worst floods in 100 years. Over 500 people died, More than 1.2 Cr affected in 4 districts. 

Thousands of victims are in desperate need of relief supplies. We are on the ground, providing food and medical assistance to the affected people.

We are working to provide food, medicines and basic supplies and assist in reducing the difficulties faced by the citizens of Kishanganj, Bihar. We express our heartfelt support towards everyone in Bihar affected by this calamity. Help our flood relief efforts by making a contribution.

It has been reported that 1.2 Cr people have been affected. The main hospital shave become defunct as they have been completely submerged under water. Reports are in of over 50 bridge shaving been completely washed away and the water supply lines also destroyed.

The floods have destroyed everything from homes to hospitals to basic food supplies.  The people of Kishanganj need rescue and rehabilitation on a huge scale. But neither media nor Government is focusing on these areas. Our goal is to raise funds to help buy the essential lifesaving items like rescue equipment, medicines, and commodities in India.

We will continue to keep everyone updated as we make progress in our rehabilitation process and if you have ideas and suggestions, please let us know. Together, we will make a difference.
