Dear Friends
Greetings and best wishes to you from BASS India
Hope you and your family and your loved ones are safe and stat at home to protect from Covid 19. Here we too also doing fine and safe and stay at home.
I am so sad to submit that COVID 19 is rapidly affected in India and whole country is lockdown since 22nd March 2020. which has been extended until 3rd May 2020. Therefore, everything is closed down and stay at homes include our schools also. The government has announced all children up to 9th classes are qualified their annual exams and promoted to next higher classes.
Unfortunately, Guntur district of Andhra Pradesh is one of the highest numbers of positive Covid19 cases registered (122) and hundreds of people are identified as Covid suspected and hence government recognised Guntur district and especially city as is one of the RedZone areas and strictly implementing lockdown. Hence all the families living in the slums and street dwellers and seasonal migrated families lost their works and stay at homes with out income as well as food. And moreover, the saved food items are already finished and children and their families are at risk of starvation and looking forward to get help from government and likeminded organisation. And government is not able to provide all the people needs with their limited resources as well as restrictions as some of the migrated people and street dwellers not able to get ration from government due to no local identity. As such local district government is invited us as leading NGO in Guntur district seeking our cooperation to help some of the needy people at streets and slums to provide timely cooked food packages as well as food commodities.
Therefore, BASS India is also trying to support children with us in our schools by giving rice and pulses for few days to have food. And also distributing slum dwellers to with food groceries kits along with sanitation packs.
But we have little sources and initiated a project in GlobalGiving to seek help from global people to support the needy people in Guntur, India
I request you please kindly share the project with all your friends and make a small donation to the project.
Please stay home and protect yourself
With gratitude
