STREET PROVIDENCE GOA is determined to save the life of this orphan boy named Mr. Moses, against all odds, as he battles with his Colostomy issue, for which he had an operation in May 2023.

Something seems to be trying to defeat his purpose to survive, but fortunately, he contacted me, and I have tapped into my FAITH to ensure that he survives and fights this issue that has taken over his mind.

The sequence of events leading to his survival against all odds is truly a testimony of its own:

》1. Due to excess drinking, he had to undergo an operation where a part of his intestine was removed, and he now has a colostomy bag. He was in the district hospital when he noticed my contact number, which was put up on a board for those who required free shelter around 15 days ago.

》2. He reached out to me, and despite knowing that it's a very complicated case and we are already overloaded with too many sick people in our homes, I committed to helping him. I can't explain why I agreed, but I did.

》3. Exactly 7 days ago on 11th July, he was discharged from the hospital and went to the local police station to get an NOC stating that he is homeless and requires shelter.

The PSI initially refused to entertain him and even ignored my requests when I called. I had to request the DYSP and a fellow PSI to intervene on his behalf. Finally, after some struggle, he got the required paperwork, and we accepted him into our home. However, even then, I was unsure why we were helping him, given the seemingly hopeless situation.

》4. On 14th July, he complained of pains and uneasiness in several places, including his groin, and we admitted him back to the district hospital without an attendant as we couldn't afford one and didn't feel the need for it at the time.

》5. On the same day, 14th July, he was transferred to GMC (Goa Medical College), and there are two versions of what happened next: either he self-discharged and left GMC, or he was ignored and asked to leave.

》6. On 15th July, he fainted and collapsed, and we received another call from him. For some reason, I instructed my team to follow up with him again.

》7. It became clear to me that he wouldn't receive the care he needed, so I decided to shift him to a private hospital, though I can't fully explain why.

》8. On Sunday, 16th July, I approached a private hospital administration to get him admitted, even though it was a Sunday, and the hospital didn't seem very interested initially due to the lack of big doctors available. Still, they agreed after a 30-minute discussion.

》9. We successfully got him admitted to the private hospital in North Goa, but the on-duty doctor initially refused to admit him, citing that he should be taken to GMC. However, our manager, Sapnesh, convinced the doctor after an hour, and he was eventually admitted and put on drips with an attendant. I can't explain why they agreed to admit him finally.

》10. Throughout the night, I prayed for his recovery, even though I'm not usually an emotional person when it comes to homeless individuals, regardless of their medical condition.

》11. On the following day, 17th July, the big doctor conducted all necessary tests and said he had to be discharged as he needed to be admitted to GMC. I was upset as I believed it wouldn't be beneficial for him since he wasn't stable yet. But again, I couldn't understand why they couldn't stabilize and treat him there itself.

》12. On the morning of 18th July, his hemoglobin dropped, and he received a pint of blood along with two expensive injections. Despite my uncertainty, I authorized the treatment.

》13. Tonight, 18th July, he is doing much better with an attendant to look after him, and another pint of blood is scheduled to be given to him tomorrow.

》14. I know that the medical bills will be high, but I'm confident that this private hospital can stabilize him, as they did with a similar colostomy case a few years ago.

As for the many questions and uncertainties that arose during this process, I have the following answers:

☆ 1. We are called to handle such complicated, difficult, and heart-wrenching cases as no one else would want to get involved in helping these people for free.

☆ 2. God has a plan to use our NGO to save this homeless man, despite his past bad company and habits.

☆ 3. Since God can't directly help him, God uses people to get the job done, and we need to follow the message from God.

In the last few days, Moses' health issues have been distressing me, as handling such a complicated case with so many issues is not easy. However, I cannot afford to let him die without attempting to give him the best facility to get his life back.

Today, we at Street Providence sleep well, knowing that Moses' health will be restored with the Grace of God and through the hospital that is treating him.

Although it will take time to get him back to normal, my FAITH tells me that “He is healed and set free,” and soon he will undergo his second operation to address his Colostomy issues.

I request you to say a little prayer thanking God “that Moses is healed” once you read this message. Please don't ask God to heal him.

We DARE TO DREAM regardless of the situations, the many questions, the WHY at every stage, and the mounting medical bills that need to be paid.

God bless you all,

STREET PROVIDENCE GOA has finally delivered two huge consignments of GENERIC medicines into the relief areas for two districts of Manipur. This comes after a long delay due to logistics issues in Nagaland. 

If these generic medicines were purchased locally in Manipur as allopathic medicines, they would have cost between Rs 9 lakhs to Rs 10 lakhs, considering the shortage of medicines in the state. 

On 24.6.2023, we sent a huge consignment of generic medicines. You can find more information about it here: 

https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid036BqhBYkdCP8eL54FN5TjvQcCFzSLNp4szrNKKt27tCE6X9JBtkCYsxYMeKVXL8HQl&id=100064851668050&sfnsn=wiwspwa&mibextid=RUbZ1f 

And on 4.7.2023, we sent another significant consignment of GENERIC medicines. You can find more information about it here: 

Due to logistics issues, both consignments were initially sent to Nagaland. 

However, on 14.7.2023, we managed to transfer both consignments from Nagaland to Manipur by road. 

One consignment was given to The District Relief Committee at Kangpopki. 

Pictures are attached. 

Another consignment was given to The Archdiocese of Imphal. 

A video is attached & pictures 👇👇

All of these medicines were specifically ordered by the respective medical teams in both districts, as the shortage of medicines continues to be a significant issue in Manipur. 

As an NGO, we are working closely with the District Administration and the Archdiocese & We are also aware that relief material is being provided to the deserving in the relief camps & in hospitals 

We would like to express our appreciation and gratitude to our benefactors and donors for supporting our request. We are currently sending more consignments of medicines from Delhi. 

Additionally, we are purchasing dry ration and groceries locally, and our staff is actively monitoring the distribution in the districts. 

We make sure to upload our requests and project updates on social media. Once a project is completed, we provide detailed results, pictures, and videos to show you where, how, and to whom the benefits have been distributed. 

Transparency is a priority for us, and we use social media to raise resources and highlight our work. 

As the only NGO from Goa working on the ground in Manipur, we feel blessed to have the opportunity to provide some relief despite the distance of 4,000 kilometers. 

We will continue working in Manipur for the next few months until normalcy is restored. We are also eager to start new projects to bring further relief to those affected in the state. 

We kindly request your continuous support, prayers, wishes, and the forwarding of our messages. 

We urge you to join us in Daring to Dream and making a positive impact as WE DARE TO DREAM.

STREET PROVIDENCE GOA acknowledges its commitment to providing rehabilitation to homeless individuals in Goa under the condition that they obtain a letter from a police station confirming their homelessness. 

I want to share with you the story of a young man named Moses who is currently facing a colostomy issue. 

This condition involves a surgical procedure where his intestine is cut, and he carries a colostomy bag attached to his stomach to collect waste. He regularly needs to empty the bag into a toilet and replace it with a new one to pass stools. 

Moses is not only homeless, but he is also extremely ill. 

His situation is heart-wrenching, and I won't delve into the details to spare you the pain. 

A few days ago, we received a call from Moses, and without hesitation, we agreed to take him into our home. 

However, his case is not an easy one to handle due to the complexities associated with his colostomy and other health issues. 

Just try to imagine the physical and mental suffering he endures. Despite being educated, Moses has fallen on hard times and is in a wretched state both mentally and physically. 

The disappointment of his homelessness has taken a toll on his mental health to the point where he even contemplated suicide. 

We assured him that we would care for him, and that gave him some respite. 

Just a couple of days ago, we welcomed him into our home, but his hygiene condition, possibly from where he had come, was far from satisfactory. 

As a result, he was readmitted to the government hospital today, as our shelter home was ill-equipped to handle his complexities. 

Currently, Moses is alone in the government hospital, receiving treatment. 

Unfortunately, we cannot afford to admit him to a private clinic that specializes in this type of treatment, as it is an expensive endeavor. 

He requires extensive medical care and professional treatment to regain his strength. 

However, our homes are already overloaded, and the relentless rains exacerbate the situation. 

I was informed that Moses sought help from other homes, but due to his condition, he was turned away. He eventually found his way to our home, which was his last resort for assistance. 

Every day, we encounter various requests for rehabilitation from both men and women, and 95% of the time, we agree to help, provided there is proper documentation demonstrating their homeless status. 

Some of these requests are so heartbreaking, disturbing, and pathetic that it's difficult to comprehend how the impoverished and homeless manage to survive with such complex and debilitating medical conditions on the streets. 

We have successfully rehabilitated a couple of cases involving colostomy patients, so we are well aware of the challenges such cases present. 

From the foul smells to the constant need for hygiene maintenance, the pain, discomfort, and other illnesses associated with colostomy can be overwhelming. 

Furthermore, it's important to note that colostomy is a lifelong condition, which often compels mental health issues to arise alongside physical struggles, such as kidney stones. 

I must stress to those who excessively consume alcohol that this is often how one ends up needing a colostomy bag. 

Young individuals and youth, in particular, should be cautious and refrain from excessive alcohol consumption, as it can cause severe damage to various parts of the body, including the need for intestinal resection. 

In the coming days, we are uncertain about Moses' medical condition. However, it is crucial that he be transferred to a reputable private hospital as soon as possible, where he can receive the best treatment available to combat his colostomy issue.

STREET PROVIDENCE GOA is starting a FREE home for poor ladies suffering from Autism & Downsyndrome in Goa.

At Street Providence, our primary focus is providing free full-time rehabilitation to the poorest of the poor Goans suffering from disabilities and those who are homeless on the streets.

We currently run 8 shelter homes in Goa, 

With the addition of this new home, we will be running 9 FREE shelter homes in Goa for the poorest of the poor Goans and those suffering from mental, physical, and intellectual disabilities.

The majority of the inmates in our homes, over 130 out of 165, are suffering from chronic mental disabilities, followed by acute alcoholism and mild drug abuse.

We provide rehabilitation for people suffering from various conditions, including:

Starting a full-fledged long stay home for men and women suffering from Autism, Downsyndrome, Parkinson's, and Dementia has always been a dream for us. 

And now, one of those dreams is finally coming true. 

The 1st such FULL FLEDGED LONG STAY HOME (absolutely free for the poorest of the poor Goans) will be for WOMEN suffering from AUTISM & DOWNSYNDROME.

Caring for people with disabilities is often considered difficult, especially when it's just one person at our home. 

But at Street Providence, we have taken up this service as a challenge to care for the poorest of the poor with disabilities because WE DARE TO DREAM.

This dream has been made possible due ♡ to the Grace of God, 

We have mastered the service of caring for poor people with mental disabilities. 

Now, it's time to use the goodwill generated by our NGO to serve and care for the poorest of the poor Goans suffering from disabilities such as Autism, Downsyndrome, Parkinson's, and Dementia.

For professionals who have expertise in dealing with Autism & Downsyndrome adults, please consider offering your services to this home on a voluntary basis or at a minimum charge, as this is a FREE home for the poorest of the poor.

Our team and I are excited to have finally overcome the major obstacle of caring only for people with mental and physical disabilities after 5 long years of running shelter homes.

There is a lot to learn in this service of caring for the ladies suffering from Autism & Downsyndrome. 

This house needs a few household accessories, both electrical and electronic, to cater to the needs of these poor ladies. Any help, including running costs and other expenses, is welcome.

Please visit our website at www.streetprovidencegoa.com to learn more about our NGO, including the relief work in Manipur. 

We operate strictly through WhatsApp messages only, so please avoid calling unnecessarily. 

Feel free to contact us at 8380097564 only through whatsapp messages.

God bless you so much.

On 9th July 2023, at the Relief Camp @ HEINGANG MAKHA LEIKAI, Food Bank for the Poor Sangolda Goa, in collaboration with the Archdiocese of Imphal, distributed dry ration to those in need. This was our first consignment for the relief work in Manipur. 

We had procured and paid for the first consignment on 23rd June 2023 directly from a vendor in Manipur. 

You can find the details of the post we uploaded on that day at this link: 

[Facebook post link](https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid02ACnQ8R2My3PQPqE491Mu5CAahi8sLyJ6jic9EQkkKkFH5kfGoKYaacbFCsNaGKusl&id=100015579063378&sfnsn=wiwspwa&mibextid=RUbZ1f). 

On 9th July 2023, our staff, along with the team from the Archdiocese of Imphal, distributed the relief material from our first consignment to 2 relief camps and 3 villages in Manipur. 

These locations include 

Each camp and village received 5-6 bags of rice and 2 bags of green peas. 

Our first consignment consisted of 32 bags of rice, 10 bags of green peas, and 3 tins of oil. 

Logistics pose a major challenge in Manipur, including weather conditions, distance, unrest, sourcing materials from reliable vendors, storage, and ensuring timely delivery to the right people. 

The lack of internet and connectivity further complicates the situation. 

While we choose not to focus on the negative issues that cause fright and uneasiness, we must believe that peace is already restored in Manipur. 

Our staff, along with the priest from DSSS and a few volunteers, successfully delivered the 32 bags of rice, 10 bags of peas, and 3 tins of oil to the relief camps and villages. 

One of the pictures shared shows the total number of people in one particular camp on 9th July 2023. 

In this district alone, there are approximately 51 camps, accommodating a minimum of 100 people and a maximum of 200 people each. 

The situation is challenging for the affected individuals, with close to 60+ days having passed and the weather remaining rainy and cold. 

At Street Providence Goa, we are doing our best to raise resources and other materials through our drive to bring a little smile to these poor people who have nowhere else to go. 

We have attached a few pictures of the first relief material distributed at The Relief Camp @ HEINGANG MAKHA LEIKAI, Kangpokpi District. 

We humbly request your continuous support, prayers, well wishes, forwarding of our messages, and donations. 

We appreciate you being a part of this cause. 

We would like to acknowledge our collaboration with the Archdiocese of Imphal and the District administration, as they are crucial in our relief efforts. 

We urge you to join us in daring to dream and making a positive impact as we DARE TO DREAM.

FOOD BANK FOR THE POOR SANGOLDA GOA is pleased to announce that the 2nd consignment of 13 tonnes of dry ration and grocery items has finally reached Kangpokpi from Assam after almost 7 days. 

We had paid for this stock in advance to ensure its timely arrival. 

Attached are pictures and a video showcasing the delivery.👇

We are grateful to the FMCK Congregation (St Clare Province) for their substantial contribution to this consignment. 

They paid the supplier directly in Assam, further supporting our efforts.

However, logistical challenges persist as the Kohima-Dimapur highway remains closed due to mudslides. 

Despite these obstacles, yesterday, we successfully offloaded the following:

total quantity of 6410 kgs at the following address in Kangpokpi with the help of our two staff members stationed there :

is en route to the Churachandpur district. 

This leg of transportation is currently proving to be the most challenging.

On Monday, our staff, together with the Kangpokpi Relief Committee members, will distribute the 3rd consignment of 4050 kgs, which we uploaded yesterday on social media.

On Tuesday and Wednesday, our staff will work with Fr. Roy and the local parishioners to distribute this ration of 6410 kgs to those in need.

To ensure transparency and avoid duplicity, we employed local Manipuri staff who are responsible for recording data on beneficiaries, including their names, addresses, and specific needs. 

This information is then sent to our Goa office for random checking.

On Thursday, our staff will distribute the remaining ration consisting of 6590 kgs in the Churachandpur district, as it is expected to reach the destination by that time.

Our Manipuri staff are told to list down the names & addresses of the poorest of the poor families :

This data will be compiled during distribution.

In addition to providing dry ration, we also have two huge consignments of medicines on the way to both the Kangpokpi and Churachandpur districts.

We express our gratitude to all the generous benefactors who have already donated, are currently donating, and will continue to donate towards our Manipur relief appeal. 

Your support is crucial, and we want you to know exactly where your donations are going. 

That's why we take the time to write these detailed messages and provide updates.

To all the generous benefactors who donated, are donating and will be donating towards our MANIPUR relief appeal, our transparency can't get better than this.

You need to know where your donations are going and that's why we take time to write these long messages in detail.

We are happy to share a little good news that a few schools have reopened in the hills area, and we believe our prayers are being answered.

We need to BELIVE that PEACE is fully RESTORED in MANIPUR.

However, there is still much more to be done in Manipur beyond providing dry ration and medicines.

As promised two weeks ago, we will continue to upload pictures and videos of the relief work.

Your continous support , prayers , wishes , forwarding our messages and donations are what we are asking of you , reading this post.

And in the coming week, you can expect to see the countryside of Manipur as we distribute supplies to the people.

We would like to acknowledge our collaboration with the Archdiocese of Imphal and the District administration, who are instrumental in our relief efforts. 

The relief we send to Manipur is distributed to both the Diocesan Social Services Society (DSSS), a part of the Archdiocese of Imphal, and the District administration running the relief camps.

We urge you to join us in daring to dream and making a positive impact as WE DARE TO DREAM.

Please communicate with us exclusively through WhatsApp messages at 8380097564.

Kindly note that all your donations are eligible for tax exemption under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act. We kindly request you to provide a copy of your PAN card.

May God bless you all.

Today, the FOOD BANK FOR THE POOR, SANGOLDA, GOA, successfully delivered our third consignment of dry ration and grocery items at Kangpokpi, Manipur.

The consignment was delivered to the office of the Kangpokpi District Relief Committee, which operates under the District Collector of Kangpokpi District. 

This initiative was made possible by the generous contribution of a Goan family consisting of two adult daughters and their mother from Goa.

Logistics has been a major challenge in Manipur, but the situation is gradually improving. 

We now have two full-time staff members working in Manipur, as I mentioned previously.

As promised, we are pleased to share the first pictures of our Food Bank relief work on the ground. 

Due to the internet ban, you may wonder how we obtained these pictures. 

However, you can find more pictures on our website at www.streetprovidencegoa.com.

Whether we are working in Goa or outside of Goa, our NGO always collaborates with local authorities such as the police, hospitals, district collectors, and press personnel. 

When dedicated to serving the poor and needy full-time, contacts and assistance are always readily available. 

Good-hearted individuals consistently find their way to the right places and people.

Additionally, we are excited to announce that our second consignment, weighing 13 tonnes, of dry ration has just arrived into Manipur.

We will upload pictures of this consignment in the next day or two. 

A few days ago, the same Goan family inquired about assistance for Manipur, and I shared my thoughts. 

Within three days, we were able to locate a reliable supplier in the heart of Kangpokpi District, offering us competitive rates. 

Today, at 11 am, we collected the following items :

Our staff then delivered these items to the Kangpokpi District Relief Committee office.

Tomorrow, committee members and our staff will personally visit affected families in villages, distributing relief materials and maintaining proper records to prevent duplication.

Transparency is a core value of our organization.

We upload all project requests on social media and, once funded, provide updates with pictures showcasing where the funding is utilized. 

All our relief materials are purchased through cheque payments from our bank account.

Over the past six years, we have been able to sustain numerous complex projects thanks to the grace of God and generous benefactors.

Remarkably, 90% of our long-standing benefactors, some dating back to mid-2017, have never met me or seen me in person. 

Even our registered office in Sangolda is a modest metal roof office spanning only 4 meters by 4 meters. 

However, the love, trust, and commitment we receive from donors and benefactors exceed my imagination.

While we may occasionally make mistakes, we remain devoted to each project and service we undertake. 

If you share my concern for the people in Manipur, I urge you to support our project and donate generously.

We collaborate with the Archdiocese of Imphal and the District administration in our relief efforts. 

The relief we send to Manipur is distributed to both the Diocesan Social Services Society (DSSS), a part of the Archdiocese of Imphal, and the District administration running relief camps.

WE DARE TO DREAM,  and we invite you to join us.

Please communicate with us exclusively through WhatsApp messages at 8380097564.

It's worth noting that all your donations are eligible for tax exemption under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act, and we kindly request you to provide a copy of your PAN card.

STREET PROVIDENCE GOA, in collaboration with FMCK nuns (St Clare Province) and dedicated volunteers, has established 18 collection centers across Goa and one collection center in Sindhudurg district, South Maharashtra, for the MANIPUR RELIEF initiative.

Please find attached the list of collection centers in Goa and one in Sindhudurg district.

Our collection points are located in the following talukas: 

Additionally, a list of relief items to be donated is also attached.

There is a significant demand for sleeping mats and milk powder. 

We kindly request that you support us by providing clean, usable, and appropriate items.

Our Food Bank is already procuring food grains in Assam and Manipur, which are then delivered to the relief camps in Manipur through the District Collector and The Archdiocese of Imphal. 

Furthermore, we are directly sending generic medicines from Delhi to Manipur, which we are purchasing at a highly discounted rate for this noble cause.

In Manipur, we have employed two full-time individuals who are working on behalf of our NGO. 

We are closely aware of the ground reality as we have been engaged in relief efforts in Manipur for nearly two weeks.

According to our staff's update today, the consignment of materials is expected to have reached Kangpokpi and will then proceed to a place called Pinjang. 

However, we are currently facing delays due to a rockslide along the Dimapur Kohima highway, which has disrupted the transportation route. It is expected to be resolved in a couple of days.

Inspired by the urgency of the situation, we have gathered a dedicated team of volunteers who have graciously agreed to serve as collection points in Goa for relief materials for MANIPUR. 

Once we have gathered all the necessary materials, our intention is to load trucks and send them to the relief committee teams working in Manipur, with the support of the district collectors and the Archdiocese of Imphal.

We, at Street Providence Goa, humbly request you to contribute through in-kind donations or monetary support via cheque/NEFT to aid our relief work in Manipur. 

All your donations are eligible for tax exemption under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act, and we kindly request you to provide a copy of your PAN card.

Please coordinate in advance and schedule an appointment with the collection points if you wish to donate relief materials in kind. 

However, please note that we are not collecting clothes.

For any queries or doubts, kindly reach out via WhatsApp at 8380097564. 

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in avoiding phone calls.

Over the past six years, we have undertaken several relief projects, but this one presents unique challenges due to the considerable distance of 4000 kilometers and the existing roadblocks. 

However, we believe that with the support of generous benefactors like yourself, we can achieve our goals.

We dare to dream, knowing that all good things are achievable through acts of kindness and concern, even in the most adverse conditions, as long as they are carried out with the right intentions and straight from the heart.

For more information, please visit our website at www.streetprovidencegoa.com.

God bless you abundantly.

STREET PROVIDENCE GOA is currently dispatching its second consignment of medicines today from New Delhi to Manipur via road transport. 

A detailed list of the medicines included in this consignment has been attached for reference. 

If you have the time, you can search on Google to find the value of these medicines. 

It is worth noting that the medicines are being sourced specifically from New Delhi.

The first consignment of medicines was dispatched on June 24, 2023, and it arrived at the border area on July 3, 2023.

Tomorrow, on July 5, 2023, this first consignment will reach its destination in Imphal.

In addition to the medicines, Street Providence Goa has also sent 400 packets of organic sanitary pads (one carton) from Goa today. 

These sanitary pads will reach Manipur within a span of 10 days. 

The cost of one carton, inclusive of transportation, is Rs 14,000.

If anyone is interested in contributing cartons of organic sanitary pads as a donation, they are kindly requested to get in touch with Street Providence Goa.

Street Providence Goa takes this opportunity to express our deep appreciation and gratitude to all the benefactors who have generously supported our appeal for funds. 

It is through these donations that our NGO is able to consistently provide and send relief material to Manipur. 

Furthermore, Street Providence Goa actively purchases dry ration and groceries from Assam or Manipur, based on availability, and ensures their timely delivery to our volunteers at the base in Manipur.

This second consignment of medicines is specifically intended for the Kangpokpi District, which encompasses approximately 54 relief camps and shelters over 10,000 individuals. 

The medical team of doctors associated with the Kangpokpi Relief Committee requested this second consignment of medication in coordination with the District Collector. 

Street Providence Goa has received an email from the District Collector's office, which not only outlines the specific medicines required but also provides details about the conditions and situations prevailing in the relief camps.

Street Providence Goa has been granted a credit period of a few days for this second consignment. 

However, we would be immensely grateful if we could secure a sponsor to cover the costs associated with the medication bill.

The organization fully acknowledges the challenging circumstances faced by the impoverished residents of Manipur residing in the relief camps. 

We are steadfast in our commitment to providing whatever relief and assistance we can, leveraging the support of our donors and benefactors.

In light of the need to instill hope and concern rather than fear,  Street Providence Goa,  refrains from writing extensively. 

It is important to highlight that managing relief operations from a distance of 4,000 kilometers is an arduous task, particularly considering the ever-changing situation on the ground that transpires throughout the day. 

Confirmations and continuous coordination are of paramount importance and are primarily conducted through phone calls, as WhatsApp and internet services remain inaccessible.

Street Providence Goa warmly welcomes any form of support that individuals are able to provide. 

It is worth noting that all donations are eligible for income tax exemption under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act.
