Being mindful that there are many front-line workers in Kotdwara, Project Help India wanted to thank the many local police and hospital workers, acknowledging their brave, and mostly unappreciated and unrecognised efforts.
So, we reached out to our good friend Rachit, the owner of a local sweet shop, who gave us a discount on the bulk purchase of a variety of treats. With this we packed, delivered, and handed out “goodie bags” containing a box of sweets, a dry cake and a thank you message to 400 doctors, nurses and police. These front-line workers have been working long, exhausting hours, for months on end.
Our Project Officer has written …
We are grateful to each and every individual who has been at the forefront of the current crisis, ensuring that our community stays safe and has access to essential services. These COVID-19 warriors are the real heroes and their tireless spirits in these difficult times is commendable. With this campaign, we hope to encourage them. We recognise the efforts of these brave men and women and therefore offer a token of heartfelt appreciation and gratitude.
When receiving the goodie bag the policemen and health workers were highly thankful for the gesture of thank you by Project Help India, saying that no one in this difficult time is even asking them about their well-being. Only Project Help India has approached them and appreciated them for their hard work. The government has not even taken care to providing them with access to drinking water. It’s only Project help India who are the ones encouraging them.
So today by sharing all this news, we also want to thank our sponsors from bottom of our hearts for this beautiful gesture. Each time when you donate you change lives.
Our Team also reports that this project has lifted their spirits. It was a wonderful week in the midst of what still has been the most bleak and difficult of circumstances.
With love and thanks from Project Help India - down at the hospital
