Kerala Floods | Windows for Shaji's house

With Jinesh's help, We are still tracking all the 21 families (who lost their homes) that we helped  after Aug-2018 flood.  Unfortunately, some of them are still struggling. One of them is Shaji whom we had helped with the house construction last year.  When I contacted him 2-3 months back to enquire his whereabouts, he mentioned that he has moved to his new house with his 2 month old baby.  Jinesh used to share the construction pictures at every stage and he had mentioned that windows are not fixed as he was short of funds. Even though, Shaji didn't explicitly asked for any help, we decided to pitch in.




Thanks to Reenu and Thomas for taking care of all the expenses (20 big windows, 3 kitchen and 2 bathroom) and their home is much safer now.




Big windows 20×1000=20000
Kitchen window
3×800.     =2400
Bathroom
2×500.     =1000
Total.        =23400
Discount. =900
Balance.   =22,500 /- 

By the way, this is where Shaji and his family staying when we initially helped with the house construction. So, really glad to see the progress (even though it took so long).
