Help us take care of them and get them back on their feet, through financial donations or sending us relief material. Please do reach out to us if you wish to help us in any other way. Maya Foundation has been feeding and sheltering many of those who had no other way to amid the pandemic lockdown for two months now with our network of kitchens, shelters and staff. This Cyclone has been a double disaster for our state. Come join us in this fight against adversity.
We are Born to Care!

With the help of your generous contributions, we have been able to start rebuilding these battered, worst hit communities! The first set of Tarpaulin sheets have been bought to help roof these houses that were damaged, leaving their occupants exposed to the elements. A Herculean task still lies ahead; over 3000 such sheets would be needed in this community alone to repair all damaged roofs.

Providing the people with basic, but urgent necessities like clothing, sanitary napkins, non-perishable food and helping drain the salty water from their agricultural lands and freshwater ponds remains a challenge we are working towards. The roads are still blocked by trees or waterlogging, and our teams from Kolkata aim to reach their in the next couple of days.

Thousands of livelihoods are destroyed. Forever perhaps. It's hard to digest the magnitude of that statement. But with kilometre after kilometre, acre after acre looking like the images above, it's a hard truth. Our teams at Maya Foundation are working through the days and nights to help provide relief for these communities. The number of households in Patharpratima we have promised to arrange tarpaulin sheets for after their roofs were blown away has now crossed over 5000! With the money you have generously helped raise, some of these have already been arranged and some houses have already been repaired, allowing families to return home.

With the Covid-19 pandemic induced lockdown also still in place, it was hard already for these families to arrange a living and we had helped them out with supplies before. We shall do so again! With many roads that will be fit for navigation again soon, our teams from Kolkata shall reach them soon with much needed relief supplies and medical attention. Please continue to support us in this struggle to live!
We are all Born to Care!

With the help of your valuable contributions, as well as a very large generous donation from Jana Kalyan Maitri Sangha, we distributed 223 sheets of tarpaulin (that would help that same number of families do repairs and get back in their homes!), and distributed rations such as bisuits, baby food and fruit juice, and clothes (donated by many of you, both old and new).

Outbreak of fungal and skin diseases, with the loss of places where these people usually used to bathe. Raising awareness on as well as your donations for this rise in fungal diseases, skin diseases as well as female reproductive diseases is something we would need greatly in the days ahead.

We are planning yet another relief mission to Patharpratima, as well as a health camp and relief mission to Sagar Island. Please continue supporting us in this fight, we are Born to Care after all! @ Pātharpratima Island
