After the devastating floods in Assam, Reliance Foundation (RF) has launched a relief initiative, for tens of thousands of affected residents. In severely impacted districts like Cachar, Nagaon, and Sribhumi, RF has helped to tackle critical health concerns and given support to safeguard livelihoods.

Reliance Foundation Help In Assam 

The floods, started in late May and early June, caused widespread damage, sweeping away homes, contaminating water sources, and putting vulnerable groups like women, children, and livestock-reliant families at risk. In response, Reliance Foundation launched a multi-pronged initiative across 50 flood-affected villages which was focused on early warning dissemination, public health awareness, clean drinking water access, veterinary support, and hygiene kit distribution.

Even before the floods arrived, Reliance Foundation was working on the ground issuing early warnings to help communities in vulnerable villages prepare, evacuate when needed, and minimise the impact of the disaster.

Once floodwaters rose, the Foundation’s public health campaign reached over 74,000 people with information on disease prevention, safe water practices, and hygiene. The campaign gave special attention to the needs of women and adolescent girls.

Reliance Foundation Solution On Contaminated Water

Contaminated water sources are among the biggest health hazards after floods. To tackle this, Reliance Foundation set up a portable water filtration unit that turned dirty surface water into safe drinking water. In five days, around 3,000 litres of clean water were provided to 200 people living in high-risk areas. 

The Foundation organised 15 livestock care camps where more than 5,300 animals were treated and 656 farmers received direct veterinary support. These efforts provided much-needed relief to households struggling to recover their livelihoods.

Reliance Foundation distributed 1,500 sanitation kits packed with practical essentials like soaps, toothbrushes, toothpaste, buckets, and mugs. These kits helped reduce the risk of disease in difficult living conditions.
