BANGALORE, India -- Hit by torrential rain, landslides and flash floods causing extensive devastation at Uttarakhand, the students of Greenwood High School in Bangalore have taken a noble initiative to raise funds and materials for the affected. As per Government data, more than 1000 people including tourists have died and many are still stranded in the region without food and other essential supplies. A number of villages as well as roads have been washed away and the affected needs as much help and support at this moment. While many corporates and organizations have come forward to join hands during this hour of crisis, students from Greenwood High School also want to be part of the contribution.
The Greenwood High Trust will be donating materials worth Rs. 20 lakh, which will be added to the donations collected. A call for support is extended to the community to support this initiative. The students are putting their efforts together to raise funds for a natural disaster. About 4-6 trucks will be leaving on July 6, 2013 with the funds and materials collected. The contributions will be sent to Uttarakhand directly by trucks via Rishikesh.
"Recovery will indeed be a long process, with many lending a helping hand. We are pleased to join this effort" said, Mrs. Niru Agarwal, Trustee, Greenwood High School.
