Thank You! We know you are with us

Some of our wellwishers have already responded to our request for support. A few of them have also requested other people they know for extending support. And we have got positive responses from those quarters too.

A few have offered to help HSI (Help Sunderbans Initiative) financially. Others have contributed by extending our call of help to reach more people. There are those who have also offered to come with us to help the distribution.

We sincerely hope that this post gets read by anyone who has extended, or wishes to extend, his / her hand in one capacity or the other towards the people of Sunderbans who brought us all together.

All we can say now to all of you is:

We are encouraged, inspired and energised by your spontaneous responses. We are banking on you to see this through. All we require now is the message of need to help the affected people to spread as wide as it can. We are some way into the journey, but we have a long way to go. And we will need the support to keep coming in all the time.

We are visiting Chargheri tomorrow (actually today). This time we plan to distribute food materials for 2 weeks. It will not be easy at all. Everything except the number of people will be double. It will be a challenge to complete it all before dusk.

But then this saves us about 4500 bucks per fortnight by way of cutting the transport expense into half.
