The rising death toll and devastation

On June 2, The Coromandel Express, which was running at 127 Km/hr collided with a goods train and several coaches of the Bangalore-Howrah Express in Balasore district, Odisha and derailed on the main line. This devastating accident has claimed 300+ lives (numbers are rising unfortunately) and has injured 900+ people. Families have been shattered, dreams have been crushed, and communities are left grappling with grief and uncertainty. The sheer magnitude of this tragedy has left scars that will remain for generations to come.

The stories from the accident are heartbreaking‌. Survivors remember the coaches shaking and rising high up in the air and then crashing on the tracks with many people dying instantly and hundreds of others being badly injured. Immediate relief, medical attention, first aid, sustenance, and rehabilitation are critical for supporting survivors and the families of the deceased during this challenging time.

Standing beside innocent lives

Now is the time for all of us to extend our hands, hearts, and resources to those whose lives have been turned upside down by this horrific event. Your generous donation will support our NGO partners working on ground and directly contribute to the recovery and rehabilitation of the victims of the accident. Here is how your support can help:

Emergency Relief: immediate assistance in the form of medical aid, food, water, and shelter will be provided to those who have lost everything in this tragedy.

Rebuilding Lives: funds will be utilised to assist in the long-term rehabilitation efforts. This will include providing educational support to children who have lost their parents, vocational training for the adults to regain their livelihoods, and assistance in finding permanent housing.

Join hands, make a difference

In the face of tragedy, it is our duty to step forward and make a difference. Let us come together, not just as donors, but as a community that nurtures hope, rebuilds lives, and stands beside those innocent lives affected. Your contribution can be the lifeline that provides comfort, strength, and a chance at a brighter future for those in need.
