Given the situation with Covid 19 and the lockdown in the
country, OBLF decided to pivot quickly and focus on providing
relief to those impacted the most by the lockdown and its
economic and social outcomes. OBLF decided to focus
primarily in Anekal Taluk considering its decade-long history
with this region and its deep connections via our parateachers
who belong to these very same communities and
villages. In terms of specific activities, OBLF focused on three
areas: (a) procuring and providing a dry ration kit to
impacted migrant and non-migrant populations, (b) providing
fabric face masks, industrial gloves, and sanitisers to these
populations, and (c) conduct hygiene awareness sessions at
Panchayats with front line workers and migrant communities.
Over the last two months of our operations, we have
delivered 60T of dry rations and touched approximately
40,000+ lives via this process.

The team has been on the field
almost every day, working with
those living in these rural
communities to identify those
suffering the most and delivering
ration kits to them. Displayed
below is a collection of field
stories from our time in the field;
these represent our direct
experiences, and are also
indicative of the massive
challenge still ahead of us.
