Dear Donors,
Hope you are doing well and safe at home!
Thank you for your generosity and support in these times of crisis.
The increased health and socioeconomic crises brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic have drastically hit underprivileged children and families in India. These deeply deprived people live in desperate conditions without knowing as to where their next meal would come from. El Shaddai has taken up the initiative of helping these families by providing them ration kits and hygiene kits. El Shaddai took the initiative to distribute the ration kits in the cities of Mapusa, Calangute, Margao, Vasco and Panjim. The staff made sure that social distancing and safety measures were maintained. Each family was given one ration kit which would help them sustain for a month. These ration kits contained the basic essentials like rice, cooking oil, sanitary pads, toothbrush/toothpaste, dal, chilly/turmeric powder, undergarments etc. These essential items are provided monthly to the families, helping them significantly, and reducing the risk of starvation. Since March 23rd El Shaddai has provided more than 1000 ration and hygiene kits to the families affected by the pandemic.
With your help and contribution we will be able to help more vulnerable families affected by the pandemic. It is because of your help and contributions that we are able to help these families. Your generosity can go a long way in making sure that no one dies of starvation during the pandemic.
If you like to regularly engage in this Endeavour and project, we encourage you start a monthly recurring donation for a small amount, which will go a long way in giving them a bright future. The link to start a recurring donation is:
