As a result of the heavy south west monsoon,
Kerala is witnessing the worst floods since 1924.
There has been severe destruction in 12 out of
the 14 districts. Overflowing rivers and water released
from dams have forced the closure of Kochi airport,
cancellation of trains and damage to roads, houses and
agricultural land. Over 350 lives have been lost. The
losses so far are pegged at Rs 20,000
crore. There is a risk of epidemics once
the flood waters recede.
The Care Today Fund was established
by the India Today Group in 1999
to provide a platform to those who want
to contribute to causes they feel concerned
about. Since then, the fund has
supported communities affected by
major disasters in India. Today, we are
once again stepping in to galvanise support
to reach out to the flood-affected
communities in Kerala. We would like
to supplement the relief work and go on
to rehabilitation activities. We are in discussions with
the institutions active on the ground and will make specific
plans once the rescue phase of operations is over
and the situation is clearer.
As always, we will keep you informed about the
projects and the use of funds. All donations above
Rs 10,000 to the fund will be acknowledged in the
india today magazine and on all the
group TV channels. Those who would
like to donate through bank transfer
can e-mail caretoday@intoday.com
for details. Please provide your name
and address. You may also call @+91-
8588892502; +91-7011985493.
The donations will be eligible for income
tax deductions as per the provisions
of 80G of the Indian Income Tax
Act. So far, we have received Rs 10 lakh
as donation and the Care Today Fund
acknowledges the contribution of TV
Today Network Limited.
