Dear Marc,
How are you? How is your lovely wife doing? How was the wedding?
It's awfully hot and going out in April was impossible because of the intense heat waves so managed to complete April works just last week. Will send you May works by next week or first week of June and June works by mid June.
This time we set off for Kalikapur Village in Sonarpur as volunteers had relayed that very poor villagers had built temporary shanty's with plastic sheets, bamboo sheets and tarpaulin and staying beside the railway tracks with their families. They mostly earned their living by making paper bags out of old newspapers, plastic nets for fishing, reared a few chickens and ducks and worked as domestic help in nearby houses or commuted to Kolkata station platforms daily to sell vegetables.
This time we distributed a kilogram each of Masur & Moong Dal, two and a half kilogram Rice and a packet of Horlicks biscuit to 25 villagers.
Masur Dal @ ₹110 per kg x 25 = ₹ 2750 - 33 usd
Moong Dal @ ₹140 per kg x 25 = ₹ 3500 - 42 usd
Rice @ ₹40 per kg x 2.5kg - ₹ 100 x 25 = ₹ 2500 - 30 usd
Biscuit - ₹ 20 per packet x 25 = ₹ 500 - 6 usd
Freight & Travel - ₹ 1200 - 14 usd
Total Expenditure ₹ 10, 450 - 126 usd
In case of any clarification please let me know. Take care of you and your family and thank you for your endless support and love.
Sorry, for the delay!
Warm regards,
Uttara
