Our Impact

HOW OUR JOURNEY STARTED

In covid-19 pandemic emergency due to Coronavirus, the government had passed orders for a complete lockdown in the country. This country lockdown gave a huge setback to the lives of daily-wage workers, they lost their means of livelihood. They were the ones who had no other means to fulfil their family’s needs. The government’s decision to lockdown the country in the mid-night was a very tough one as they had no other choice keeping in view the exponential increase in the number of coronavirus cases within a few days. All shops, roads and means of transport were seized. The helpless people with their luggage and kids without any food, water and money started to migrate from cities towards their village on foot. Seeing the high spirits of people, the government gave them assistance by offering special bus services. In some states the police department cooked food for them to make sure that no one sleeps with empty stomachs. When the whole world is fighting against this deadly Coronavirus, there are some who are fighting this war for others too. Among such revolutionary people offering selfless service we witnessed a budding engineer from National Institute of Technology Hamirpur, Mr. VIKAS KUMAR a Final year B.Tech undergraduate pursuing Electronics and Communication Engineering and a resident of Kushinagar, Gorakhpur, UP. He observed the deteriorating condition of the workers nearby him which influenced him to do something for their betterment.

As charity begins at home, he with some of his peers thought of an idea to donate food items, soaps and masks and also to make the people aware of the pandemic that has such fatal effects. He shared this idea with his friends, alumni and teachers and they were quite supportive in his great deed. They funded him and many of his friends named Saurabh Kumar Sharma, Abhishek Kumar, Aakash Kumar, Satyam Tripathi, Shravan Kumar, Allaudin Ansari, Deepak, Pravesh and many of the active people of his village joined him.

Previous Campaings

Ration distribution during lockdown

The situation faced by the people of his village made him realise the misery faced by the people country wide. Examining the situation near him and understanding the basic requirements of a family, he decided to make packets comprising dry ration, and sanitization products. As a student he did everything that was possible from his side and the problems of funds were solved by seeking for fund-raising through their contacts.
Through this fund he was able to help 140 families in a village named H a f a Balram. The food packets had a quantity which could last for around 10 days. The food items included were potatoes, onions, rice, wheat flour, pulses, edible oil, soya bean, salts, turmeric and biscuits. Apart from giving food items he and his team distributed soaps, hand sanitizers and masks and also made the people aware of social distancing and by following some simple rules and having awareness we can give a tough fight to Coronavirus. Due to people’s awareness and support he was able to collect 1Lakh INR through funding. This time his distribution also had statistical studies about the families, their earning members etc. He increased the distribution range and went to 12 villages in the radius of 10 km. The distribution consisted of rice, wheat flour, edible oil, pulses, turmeric, salt, soya bean, biscuits, soap, detergent, hand sanitizers and masks to 400 families. He not only helped the villagers but also the workers who were migrating from Delhi to Bihar by keeping provisions for them like biscuits and water.

Ration distribution during Bihar and UP flood

As we all are aware of Bihar floods and the massive destruction it brought to man and his environment. The state had to encounter two problems simultaneously that is the flood and the pandemic. This misfortune greatly affected the daily wagers. Their livelihood got disturbed due to flood and agriculture also got affected. Small farmers and labourers were facing financial problem with lack of basic amenities. Our team and volunteers worked tirelessly to serve to the nation-men in every possible way. Our team had distributed around 400 food relief packages in worst hit flood affected areas of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar.

Cleanliness campaign at Gomti river Front, Lucknow

We have organized a cleanliness campaign at Comti river front, Lucknow. It was the time between Dussehra and Diwali and due to immersion of statues in the river it got very much polluted, so we decided to clean it as much as we can. With the help of local citizens, we were able to clean a lot of areas. We ran thiscampaign for seven days and after that due to some unfortunate circumstances we had to stop this campaign. But due to this initiative the locals get to know the importance of cleanliness and we also teach them about consequences of not being clean.

Road safety awareness

Our Sannkalp team organized a Road awareness rally at NH-28 in Gopalganj, Bihar. We stood there at chowk and whoever that is not wearing helmet while driving two wheeler, we greeted them nicely and gave a flower of rose. After that we told them about benefits of wearing helmet and also consequences of not wearing helmet. After that people promised that, they will always wear helmet as well as create awareness about it among their friends and families.

Diwali celebration with poor children

At the occasion of Diwali our team celebrated diwali with children of nearby villages whose families are not so financially able. Usually they don’t celebrate festivals with so much joy because of financial problems, but this year we went to them in diwali morning and distributed sweets, candles to almost 50+ families. After that we again visited at their place in evening and celebrated diwali with children’s and their parents. The joy at their face was very precious.

Distributed copies, stationaries and sweets among childrens and motivated them to come to study and make their future bright. Since that day, we have visited several times to these schools, distributed stationaries and motivated them.

Holi celebration

On the occasion of Holi, our team celebrated it with unprivileged children of rural areas. Donated sweets to their families and children. The expression of happiness we drew on the faces of these children was priceless. It made them feel worthy of  their existence like their lives matter. Not like other days where they are segregated and treated like a scrap in society. And our team has taken the Sannkalp of celebrating every festival with these unprivileged children and to motivate &empower them.
