ARMAAN TAFTI'S CAMPAIGN TO SPREAD WARMTH BY DISTRIBUTING BLANKETS TO THE HOMELESS. by YATAN | Fueladream

Can you imagine living on the streets during the freezing and harsh winters? Shivering in the cold, knowing there is no respite?

One in every thousand are homeless in India. Imagine falling asleep in the cold, not knowing if you’re going to see the next day. Being homeless is very difficult. The harsh winters make it harder for them to survive. This year Delhi and surrounding areas have seen temperatures dropping to as low as 3 degrees making it inhumane for the homeless. They urgently need our help!

THE INITIATIVE

My friends and I have taken it upon ourselves to save the poor and homeless by distributing good-quality blankets. This will give them the much-needed relief and will keep them safe and warm during the winter season. The blankets will be distributed in areas around Delhi and Gurgaon. Each blanket costs just INR 220 incl. distribution.

This initiative is being done in partnership with the Delhi based NGO YATAN.

IT COSTS JUST INR 2200 TO PROVIDE BLANKETS TO 10 PEOPLE.

ALL FUNDING HAS 80G TAX BENEFITS.

THE BLANKETS THAT WOULD BE GIVEN

ABOUT ME

My name is ARMAAN TAFTI. I am 13 years old and in Grade 7 at TSRS Aravali.

It is really disheartening to see many homeless people living on the streets with no blankets or proper winter clothes to keep them warm during the winter while we stay comfortable and warm in our homes.

Through this crowdfunding campaign, I aim to distribute good-quality blankets to the homeless in Delhi, Gurgaon and surrounding areas. This will bring them the much-needed relief to survive the harsh winters. Each blanket costs INR 220. Just INR 2200 will help distribute 10 blankets.

Please support my campaign and let us together help the homeless survive the harsh and frigid winters.
