CUDDALORE FLOOD RELIEF

The people of Cuddalore were affected by heavy rain during the month of November.  The people from various villages of Cuddalore lost their belongings and several documents. Even many of them lost their agriculture lands and they were helpless. The National service scheme of Kongu Engineering College involved in collecting materials from nearby areas like Perundurai, Erode, Tirupur, Paerumanallur, Lakshmi Nagar, and Kavundapadi. The Alumni of Kongu Engineering College from various Countries supported the affected peoples of Cuddalore financially. The Faculties of Kongu Engineering College supported both financially and by providing materials to the affected peoples. The volunteers gathered food for about 550 members, 500 bed sheets, 20 boxes biscuits and 30 boxes dresses (old and new). They also collected some basic home need things like candles, matchbox, soap, shampoo, oil, medicines, bleaching powder, water, dates and so on. These things cost nearly about 2.5 lakh.



Some volunteers from Kongu Engineering College went to Cuddalore to distribute the collected things. Initially they identified the needy people with the help of alumni of Kongu Engineering College from Cuddalore. The Volunteers distributed the materials to the peoples of three different areas.
