Winter Relief
People usually say that thousands of people die of cold. But the actual reason behind their suffering is that they are unable to access woolen clothes and blankets. Poor homeless people rely on footpath for their survival and unfortunately die of cold.
When it is next to impossible to even think about sleeping without the warmth of blanket, at the same time thousands of people shiver on the road. For most of us, the idea of winter means comfort under the blanket for warmth, lying in our comfort zone and sipping coffee sitting beside the fire. But for those on the streets, with every drop in the temperature, it’s a fight for survival. When the entire city enjoys the cold weather, there are few under-privileged who are wearing minimum clothes on their bodies or living without a roof. They are not able to afford even a blanket and give up on life adding to the count of deaths in India due to the cold wave every year.
Feeling their plight as ours, we decided to start a drive of blanket distribution among the less privileged people of the society. The aim of our initiative is to protect the poor people from the winter. Our purpose is to spread the message of empathy, care, and sacrifice to the society. Our team has been doing this work for 3 years in every area of Delhi.
It’s a great pleasure to witness the overwhelming response of our beloved brothers, sisters, and their families and the smile they reflect back. We do not change the lives of the people but help them survive in the cold wave.
