Due to heavy rains, we did not invite the elders to this week’s Sangamam gathering. Instead 124th week of sangamam we extended our support to those affected by floods in the nearby village of Chettikulam. This area has been severely impacted by the Kadana River flooding, with more than 50 people losing all their essential belongings. They are currently sheltered in the Samuthaya Nala Koodam at Chettikulam.
Upon request from the RI and VAO, VAMA stepped in to support these flood-affected people. As part of our relief efforts, our kitchen team prepared and served meals. We provided sambar sadam and papadam for lunch and idli with sambar and chutney for dinner over the last two days.
