Dear Friends
Hope you and all your family are well and stay safe during this Covid pandemic unpredictable time.
BASS India is unable to continue the fourth batch works site school for seasonal migrated families at brick industries, Choutuppal area, which was started from the second week of January 2020. But due to Covid 19 lockdown worksite school has been interrupted and stopped from April 2020.
350 families along with more than 120 children are migrated from Odisha state to work in 12 brick industries at Pedakonduru village of Choutuppal, Yadadri District for a period of 6 months from January 2020 but due to Covid lockdown all the migrated families are also locked and unable to go back to their native villages until August 2020.
Unfortunately, all the families do not have any work and struggle to get a meal every day and no income. BASS staff Mrs Kalavathi, Mrs Knathamma along with the Vice President of BASS Mrs Sathya Haveela effectively organized essential food commodities and sanitary kits to the seasonal migration of locked families and local communities three times. Still the Covid lockdown is continuing with relaxed restrictions. And the Covid positive cases are enormously increased every day and India is at 3 position in the world on Covid Positive cases but the recovery rate is much better.
Some of the migrated families and their children are still staying and unable to go back to their homes and the works are started. All past 6 months are not able to get any income for the families without work and at high risk of starvation as well as unable to go back to their families. In this situation BASS is continuously distributing ration kits to needy families with our limited resources. All the seasonal migrated families living very depressed in their small huts without work and no food.
We did not receive any donations for this project for a long time, I humbly request you to kindly consider making a new donation to 350 families to get more essential food supplies during these Covid lockdown days.
We are also very happy to inform you that the disbursal issue for our organization has been solved from GlobalGiving and your donation will immediately receive, please check as the notice is removed from our donation area.
Please kindly share and support to help the seasonal migrated families with essential food and support to go back their native villages
Thank you with gratitude

Dear Friends
Greetings and good wishes to you from BASS, India
Thank you so much for your kind continued support to the project for continuation of three schools situated in three remote slums in Guntur.
Good News that BASS GlobalGiving funds disbursal issue (Indian NGO Partners) is solved for us and kindly check at the donation place as the notice is removed. Now no worry for your kind donations, all donations will reach us immediately.
I Hope you and all your family members are safe and protected from Covid 19. We are always thinking about you for your safe stay for protection from Coronavirus.
I am sad to inform you that due to coronavirus all the schools are closed since March 2020 and still not opened. As you are aware that India is seriously affecting Covid 19 as thousands of people are getting Covid positives. India has already reached third place of Covid positives in the world but the most serious issue is Guntur district, where we are living and the project is implementing is one of the most Covid affected districts in India. Every day at least 750 average Covid Positive cases registering as of today total 24940 Covid positives cases and 275 deaths recorded only in Guntur district.
The lockdown is still continuing partially with relaxed restrictions as shops can open from morning to until 12 noon only but people can go out as per their needs. But many people lost their employment either daily wage or private jobs and still no work starts. Thus, most of the families are at high risk of starvation and also affecting coronavirus. Moreover, children are the victims as they are not having sufficient meals every day due to all the earnings in the family being exhausted. Due to closing of school’s children are not able to access mid-day meals since March 2020.
At this unfortunate Covid emergency situation BASS India is continuously operating Essential Food ration and sanitary kits to the children and their families in three project slum locations and also to many affected areas in Guntur District. So far 2850 vulnerable families received the essential food rations kits from BASS. BASS updates all the relief distribution reports to the Guntur district Covid Relief Wing from time to time. BASS members and volunteers are effectively operating the relief camps with social distancing and home delivery methods with Covid protection and awareness.
We are very sad to inform you that the Covid 19 is troubled and negatively impacted many children's lives and the teachers in the project. Hopefully the coronavirus will reduce and stop in India and the government of Andhra Pradesh proposing to reopen schools from 5th September 2020. But the need is so high for Covid protection, feeding with immunity boosting to all the children and staff in our project.
Therefore, we humbly request you to kindly make a new donation for this project to provide immunity boost food supplies with sanitary kits. Every child needs a special immunity boost kit of dry fruits, nuts, wheat, pulses and medications like vitamin compounds, minerals and fruits and sanitary items to protect from Covid. One kit cost $15. We need to provide the immunity boost kits to many vulnerable children who are at high risk of starvation and contraction of coronavirus.
Please support again during this corona emergency time to provide urgent immunity boost food supplies to children.
Thank you so much

Dear Friends and donors
Many greetings and kind wish to you from BASS- India
Thank you so much for your kind donation support to providing urgent essential food and sanitary kits to the needed vulnerable children and their families in Guntur, who are at risk of starvation due to Covid Lockdown.
BASS India is continuously organising Covid 19 emergency relief camps in several needy areas in slums and villages in Guntur and Prakhasham district. Until today we are able to provides essential ration kits to 2000 families with all your help as well obtained timely advances locally and other support from our partner organisation.
Our ration kits contain essential food and sanitary items as an average cost $10. One small family of 3 members can access food for at least one week with our ration kits.
We received allot of gratitude from the families who get food ration during our urgent relief camps. Still we are continuing relief camps where ever need. All our camps are registered with local district Covid Relief wing and also participated local Panchayat volunteers and government officers. We are continually sensitising the communities and maintain social distancing during our relief operations.
Covid Lockdown is implementing in India as well as in Guntur district also with more easy relaxed restrictions up to 31st July 2020 currently. Only night time is strict lockdown everywhere. But unfortunately, corona virus is severely spreading to highest number of Covid positive cases every day in India as well as also in Guntur district also. Presently 1170 Covid positives and 19 died in Guntur district only.
Through our Covid emergency relief camps noticed that many aged neglected people are suffering at high risk of starvation due to their family as well as other local neighbours’ inability to provide even a single meal to them. Because all their earnings as limited and unable to provide three meals to their children too.
Therefore, we request you to kindly support the neglected single aged people with nutritive food every day through our new micro project. 30 people can have two prepared meals for a month cost only $ 500 only. Please kindly help to feed neglected sick aged people during this Covid pandemic emergency.
Note: we are happy to inform you that our organisation GlobalGiving funds disbursal bank account problem is almost cleared. Please kindly do donate gain to this project, there is no doubt of reallocation of your donations and which will reach us very shortly.
Once again thank you so much
Sincerely with gratitude
