Dear all,
It's been exactly one month that disaster happened in himalayan region. RIP the souls which nature has taken in her embrace.
People's Science Institute, Dehradun based (and Nationally-internationally recognized) NGO has launched long-term disaster-mitigation program for the region.
Last month, we appealed common man for the funds and we got good amount,
part of which has been utilized in immediate relief in the areas where
none else has gone. The second phase is mid-term program with temporary
shelters, sanitation and solar electricity; which we have already
started and will last for next six months. Third phase will be for
livelihood restoration (Natural resources based livelihood programs),
which is long-term program for next three-four years.
In the
wake of a national disaster, most of the young people all over India
were looking for opportunities to volunteer for immediate relief and
rescue. Some of them got tie up with local NGOs, or formed their own
groups. After one month or so, when most of the relief and rescue work
is done, many assume that we are done! But now it is a time to
do for their lifetime. Those who are still looking for opportunity to
contribute towards national disaster, and looking for opportunity, we are welcoming volunteers, part-timers, short-time employees, long-term
employees, as per the convenience of the volunteers for our mid-term and
long-term program. Please spread the word across your friends and
acquaintances if they are looking for contribution in such a way!
Thanks for your patience.
