In the wake of the devastating floods in Punjab, thousands of families face loss and disruption, their homes damaged, belongings gone, and daily life upturned. At Project Help India we believe that love in action is not a slogan but a practiced commitment. When needs are vast, every small, deliberate act adds up to something transformative for communities in crisis.
Emergency Food Relief When floods cut off access to food and clean water, our team moved quickly to the affected villages with essential food supplies. These food kits sustained hundreds of families who had little other nourishment. For many, the gesture meant their first, hopeful meal in days. As one mother in Ferozepur shared;
“We had nothing left — not even drinking water. When the team brought food, it felt like God had heard our cries.”
Medical Aid and Health Support
As floodwaters receded, health challenges emerged -skin infections, fevers, and waterborne diseases. We organised a free medical camp where over 200 people, including all of our students received check-ups and treatment, and essential medicines were distributed at no cost. Yet the need remains high, with stagnant water and sanitation concerns continuing to threaten communities. We are planning additional medical camps and hygiene kit distributions to prevent outbreaks and safeguard health.
Clothing Distribution
Many families lost everything, including basic clothing. Our volunteers reached out to women and children, distributing seasonal garments to restore dignity and provide comfort in these trying times. The kids loved receiving something new and they were very excited and grateful.
Mosquito Control and Disease Prevention
Standing water boosted mosquito populations, raising the risk of malaria and dengue. To combat this, we launched fogging and mosquito-control campaigns across multiple villages, protecting hundreds of families from preventable suffering.
Our Ongoing Mission
Recovery is just beginning. The affected families still need our collective support, for food, medicine, clothing, and disease prevention. To sustain progress, we will monitor ongoing needs with a focus on the children and families who attend our six Punjab Education Centres, tracking health and welfare daily through school attendance, and responding to needs as they arise.
If you’d like to join us in this enduring act of love in action, your support, large or small, can move us closer to a safer, healthier future for Punjab’s most vulnerable. Together, we can turn compassion into concrete relief, one act at a time …this is love in action! Thank you everyone for helping us, with a special shout out to the many Punjabi volunteers who helped us with the relief efforts …you are all inspiring!
