As we went about distributing flood relief packets in village after village, we were time and again reminded about the resilience of human grace and spirit. In a village in Gurdaspur, Babaji offered us water, tea, and other refreshments despite having incurred losses to his house and livelihood due to the floods. “You are doing so much seva, please have some water,” he told us. Their homes may be broken, but not their spirits. The large-heartedness of the people of Punjab, their quintessential Punjabiyat, inspires us to continue working hard and delivering relief even in the most far-flung and cut-off villages. We want to keep this spirit intact by rebuilding lives and livelihoods in the aftermath of floods. Help us in our mission to revive Punjab.
