Little Hands #2 - Sivaji Puram Colony, Mundoor, Thrissur Dist.

Second wave of Covid is sweeping across India. People are scrambling everywhere for life. There is chaos for vaccine, cries for oxygen, rush to hospitals and push for day-to-day life too. Thousands of deaths are getting reported every day! Our country is going through the greatest crisis in its recent past.

From some safe social media corners we hear the blame games, exploitation in the time of calamity is becoming common. What should we do? Yes, stay at home by being safe and keeping others too safe. But what more? 

The noise is getting too heavy within us and that is when we decided - Let us be the part of the solution and not the problem! We decided to rekindle our "Little Hands" again and be there for the suffering souls around us in whatever ways possible!

At that same time itself we got an SOS call from Sivaji Puram Colony where several families are struggling in Covid crisis -  unable to go for their daily labor. 

One of our alert volunteer, took up this and offered support for 10 families in the colony through our "Little Hands" initiative. 

Grocery, vegetables and household items needed are procured and distributed through the friends circle who raised the SOS.





Ten families touched ! The suffocation holding us down for almost an year felt to be a little relieved. We breathed light and relaxed - ensuring we do not use up too much of oxygen!

Place         : Sivaji Puram Colony, Arumpully, Mundoor, Thrissur Dist.

Eight months since the genesis of our "Little Hands" initiative, at last, we launched into our first activity, in all its humble means. As the Sanskrit proverb goes " sreyamsi bahu vignani " (many hurdles spring up even for good things !), our first activity too had its own obstacles all over. However, it all ended in a very sublime note. Yes, just with the virtue of our undying spirit and the true support from the hearts of all of us !     Women, in her myriad roles as mother, daughter or wife are the spirit and the soul of our society.  By pure chance, for our first activity we got the opportunity to serve them in our humble way. The Kasturba Gandhi National Memorial Trust (KGNMT), based at Indore, was established in 1945 as a result of the national endeavor, led by Mahatma Gandhi, to address the issues of women in rural India.  Kasturba Old Age Home located in the outskirts of Thrissur town is a branch of KGNMT. With 26 inmates, all old women, it runs basical...
