SERUDS COVID RELIEF PROGRAM REPORT 2021
Helping Daily Wage Workers, Children, Women Affected by Covid-19
This unique project solves the problem of 950 migrant, daily wage earner families, leprosy patients, farmers and it shows effective impact on their lives. Their lives were negatively impacted due to sudden lockdown & COVID-19; the workers lost the meager income they used to earn.
These families are suffering with starvation. At that time we immediately measured the need of the poorer communities. We have made lengthy discussion with beneficiaries and community leaders about immediate need and preventive methods of the dreadful disease COVID-19. They do not have money to buy groceries for their families as they are not working in this critical crisis.
We are feeding hungry homeless with cooked food & sponsoring groceries kits to daily wage workers. Timely support is giving much more confidence to them that at least they can have food in this Coronavirus situation. With this support they were able to feed themselves during continuous 3 lock downs and spreading of COVID-19.
We have conducted the below activities for the wellbeing of poorer communities and the needy people like homeless with donations.
