Rain is entering in Mumbai and we all are getting prepared for it. There are many families living at roadside and in open are also preparing shelters for their family members. Including Children, Senior citizens, Under health treatments. ![]()
We as Center for Promoting democracy (CPD) working with some of such labourer families. Many of them take their own care and manage to build temporary shelters for their families. ![]()
Only from four communities Chikuwadi - Borivali, Dattani Park - Kandivali, Ambedkar Nagar - Malad and Vallabhbhai Patel Marg - Vileparle around 150 families expressed need to get plastic or Tarpaulin. As three of these communities also recently faced evictions by Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC). Ironically these families are contractual safai workers for BMC. ![]()
We have come to conclusion that we should support these families with 15 feet x 15 feet good quality tarpaulin. This will cost around 1,000/- for each family. This total goes to 1,50,000/-. ![]()
We don’t have any financial resources to meet this need. Hence, we are creating a resource pool for this need. We are here requesting you to contribute in this pool to fulfil this need and support 150 families to build their temporary shelters. ![]()
