Ray of HOPE

Thank you for your continued support, hope you all are safe and following lockdown rules.

Today’s topic is no wildlife, no species but today I am writing to you for a cause “Ray of Hope.” The support I need is nothing but the contribution for all those who served us in fulfillment of our hobby and ensured that we enjoy each moment of our trip and now its time for us to serve them so as they can at least manage their survival needs in this difficult situation. 

Here I am talking about gypsy drivers, guides, and tribal villagers staying and taking care of the forest area. The earning source is highly dependent on visitors for their living and is pushed to the edge of survival due to the current COVID situation. It is a difficult time for them to meet the necessity for self and family so managing critical hygiene materials like a mask, soap, and sanitizer is again a question mark for them. 

Knowing this situation we have come up with an initiative to help these struggling families who at some point in time were at our service. Please see the next section of the complete details. 

Your kindness is someone’s hope

Team Go Travellism (Mumbai Travellers, Book My Safari and Corporate compass) in association with 'CLAW community' and 'Last Wilderness Foundation' is extending its support to some of the most susceptible tribal and forest communities living around forest areas in India.
