New Delhi: Months after the flood that affected lives of millions in Bihar, Assam, and West Bengal, their conditions continue to be fragile. Millions who have become homeless continue to live in camps in pathetic conditions.
Established in 1998 Ta’awum Trust has been helping poor, helpless, orphans, and widows and those affected by natural calamities. Chairman of the Trust, Dr. Mohd. Manzoor Alam in an appeal sent to donors said that the trust is planning to distribute 10,000 blankets to the flood affected people in Bihar, Assam, and West Bengal. The distribution is to be done quickly because the winter season is about to arrive.
Trust has already distributed one thousand blankets in Bihar and now seeking donation to fund rest of the blankets. The appeal by Dr. Alam said that it cost Rs. 350 per blanket which includes cost of taxes, transportation and documentation.
All donations to the Trust are exempted under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act 1961, and it has a permanent registration under FCRA (Foreign Contribution Regulation Act).
