Dear fellow Indians and friends across the globe, the Kerala, a south Indian state, is going through massive floods and it's desperately looking for our help. More than 60 people are dead and over 60,000 people have left homeless.

Here is the current situation in Kerala and it's getting worse day by day.

 

Rain which started a week ago is still going at full force. Airports, hospitals, schools, residents and almost everywhere is flooded. People are still trapped in their own houses and relief centers are taking in more people by the minute. Rain hasn't stopped yet and water level is exponentially rising.

While state and centre governments, NGOs are doing all they can do to help the people of Kerala, we can also do a small favor in every way possible.
