We rescued a mirgrant worker

Due to COVID19 lockdown for past few months many migrant workers were stranded without work and no money for sustenance. Many migrants found their way to their home towns and such one migrant worker trying to leave Chennai was informed stranded in the outskirts of Chennai beyond Chengalpet without food for a week and in bad health.

Yesterday we received an 'sos' call from a local person to help and rescue the stranded helpless man. We hurried to the spot and arranged for an ambulance to give treatment and informed the local police. He was then taken care by the health authorities and the police.

If you have any information of such migrant workers suffering due to lack of food/ medicines please contact us at www.sosfdn.org, call us for immediate help.

COVID19 relief with Brightway India

Due to COVID19 lockdown situation around the world, international students staying in Chennai have seen a massive hit. They were not able to receive their daily expenses from home country. Many were found unable to express their distressing situation but Mr. Sagadevan (the Founder of Brightway India Charitable Trust) and myself, Barclay, of SOS Foundation have intervened into the issue and arranged for monthly provisions as much as we could.
