Warm Hearts, Warmer Winters: Help Assam’s Underprivileged Brave the Cold

Join Bharat Disaster Relief Foundation in Supporting Homeless affected by Harsh Winter in Assam
“In times of disaster, compassion is our greatest strength. Together, we can turn adversity into hope and help rebuild lives.”
As winter grips Assam, the plight of vulnerable communities, especially elderly citizens, children, and homeless families, has worsened following the devastating floods earlier this year. The lingering effects of the floods have left many without proper shelter, warm clothing, or basic necessities to face the biting cold.
The aftermath of the floods has forced countless families to live in makeshift shelters, with elderly individuals shivering through freezing nights and children battling illnesses caused by the cold. These conditions have turned the harsh winter into a life-threatening challenge for many in the state.

BDRF’s Mission: Warmth and Hope
To address this urgent need, Bharat Disaster Relief Foundation (BDRF) has launched a Winter Relief Campaign in Assam. Our aim is to bring immediate warmth, comfort, and care to the most affected individuals.
We are focusing on distributing:
Woolen Clothes: Sweaters, thermals, caps, and gloves for children and the elderly.
Warm Blankets and Quilts: To protect families from freezing nights.
Hygiene Kits: Ensuring health and cleanliness amidst challenging conditions.
Basic Food Supplies: Providing essential rations for sustenance during these tough months.
BDRF has a proven track record of effective disaster relief and community support. This winter, we are focusing our efforts on:
– Organizing Blanket and Clothing Distribution Drives: Ensuring that every donated blanket and clothing item reaches those in need.
– Setting Up Community Relief Camps: Providing hot meals and essential supplies to the most affected families.
– Raising Awareness: Educating communities about the importance of warmth and protection against cold.
– Collaborating with Local Organizations: Enhancing our outreach and impact through partnerships with trusted local entities.
With your help, we can extend our reach and make a substantial impact on the lives of Assam’s most vulnerable residents.

UPDATES
Dear donors,
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your generosity. With your support, we’ve received essential grocery items—200 kilos of rice and flour, 1000 litres of refined oil, 100 litres of mustard oil, 70 kilos each of masoor dal and chana dal, 25 kilos of kabuli chana, 50 packets of papad, and 70 kilos of besan. These are critical supplies that will help us feed the 70 differently-abled children in our care.
Every day, these children face more than physical challenges; they also endure the harsh reality of stigma and social isolation. Many of them have been neglected or overlooked simply because they are different. With your help, we can show them that they are valued and loved.
Please continue to stand by us as we fight for these children’s dignity and hope for their future. Together, we are making a real difference.
Regards,
Anil Singh, Founder

Dear donors,
Your kindness means the world to us. Caring for the 70+ special children is both a joy and a challenge. There are days I struggle to arrange even the basics, relying on shopkeepers to lend us groceries just to get by. While donations come in during festivals or special occasions, the quieter days are the hardest.
But now, because of your support, we can finally breathe a little easier. Our first delivery of essential items is on its way, and we couldn’t be more grateful. I promise to keep you updated every step of the way.
Thank you for standing with us. Your support brings hope, and that hope keeps us going.
Regards,
Anil Singh, Founder
