In the year, the charity supports a number of poor families in the Gurdaspur area in northern India, by providing basic groceries and clothing every month, funding school fees for children from those families, runs sewing skills courses for young girls from these families and providing them with sewing machines for them to become self-sufficient, carrying out roof and house repairs for many families unable to afford these. In December, the charity distributes blankets and warm clothing to the homeless in the area.
