ASSAM FLOOD 2019 - 43,00,000 people affected in 4137 villages and over 90% of Kaziranga under water.

Hi. The flood situation in Assam is bad. Though the government and NGOs are trying to tackle the situation as efficiently as possible, yet there is a lot that needs to be done. This fund raiser is an attempt to do whatever possible to help these people in need.

We need both money and people power to provide relief to these people. If anyone wants to join in on this mission, please do get in touch. (Ph. 9674657247)

The collected amount will be used to provide food and other necessaries to the people and animals of the affected area.
