"Little drops of Water, Little grains of Sand,
Make a mighty ocean and a pleasant land
Little deeds of kindness, Little words of Love,
Will make this earth an eden,like the heaven above"

Devastated by the super-cyclone, 10 districts of Orissa have been severely affected. We have suffered a great loss in terms of life and property. With more than 20,000 deaths, millions affected, loss of live-stock, cattle, grain, destruction of flora and fauna, Orissa faces irrevocable resultant damage.

Relief in the form of cash and funds is pouring in from India and abroad. But whatever we do seems to be like a drop in the ocean. We appeal to you to help our organisation - Arupa Mission Research Foundation to carry out relief duties in OParadip and Jagatsingpur (the most affected areas). Having adopted these areas we are reaching out to the affected, distributing food and medicine, clothes, kerosene and other basic relief material. Above all, our organisation is mobilising people to help in mass burials and burning of dead bodies to prevent the spread of the epidemic, which is already taking root. Help us to help the devastated, Help us to "rehabilitate" those who survived. Blessings to you.
