Feel free to ask Campaigner for a new update on this Fundraiser.
Project
As the news channels report the devastating flood that has submerged the entire state of Maharashtra, one of the major areas that has been spoken of again and again is that of Chiplun in Ratnagiri district. We can see the images of waterlogged streets, submerged cars and struggling people as the downpour continued.
A low-lying area between two mountains, Chiplun is bearing the brunt of the floods
Incessant rain has ravaged the Konkan region for several days causing major rivers in Ratnagiri and Raigad districts to overflow above the danger levels.Several long-distance trains have been stopped, cancelled or rescheduled on the Konkan Railway route. As per reports, around 6,000 passengers were stranded in trains which were regulated at various stations on the Konkan Railway route.
Chiplun’s marketplaces, residential and commercial complexes are under water. Electricity and communication lines have been snapped, bridges in and around Chiplun are underwater and establishing contact with local residents has been a struggle. The State Transport bus stand has been completely submerged, with all parked buses under water.
As the Vashishti river overflowed hundreds of residents of Chiplun have been left stranded and are awaiting rescue.
Support Hope Foundation to save lives
Hope Foundation, an NGO based out of Pune, is working relentlessly to help the victims of the dangerous flood. They want to give dry grocery kits that will include rice, dal, atta, milk powder etc to all those in need. They will also be giving hygiene products and sanitary napkins that are essential during this time of crisis. People are being asked to leave their homes in the blink of an eye and without any preparation - so these products are sure to help them immensely.
They are doing their best but with your help, Hope Foundation will be able to reach out to many more in need. In these difficult times, it is important that we stand beside those who have lost everything and help them start afresh.
