Reliance Foundation, along with Reliance Industries and its group companies, have been undertaking significant relief operations across Kerala.


MUMBAI: With Kerala reeling under the devastating impact of floods, Reliance Foundation (RF), India’s largest corporate-supported philanthropic organization, has kick-started a multi-pronged rescue, relief and rehabilitation programme to help people in the flood-affected regions of the state.

Smt. Nita M. Ambani, Chairperson, Reliance Foundation said: “In this time of acute distress faced by our brothers and sisters in Kerala, we feel duty-bound as fellow citizens and as a responsible corporate foundation to fully support the rescue, relief and long-term rehabilitation efforts in the State. On its part, Reliance Foundation will contribute Rs 21 crore to the Kerala Chief Minister’s Relief Fund. The foundation stands firmly with the people of Kerala in this hour of need. It will remain committed to its relief and rehabilitation efforts and continue its operations in Kerala until normalcy is restored in the state.”

Smt. Ambani added, “Reliance Foundation has risen to the occasion whenever natural calamities have hit any part of India. Since 2013, when earthquake and floods ravaged Uttarakhand, Reliance Foundation has trained a large team of hundreds of employees and volunteers to get involved in short, medium and long-term responses to help disaster-affected people. They have intervened effectively in Jammu & Kashmir (floods, 2014), Nepal (earthquake, 2015), Tamil Nadu (floods, 2015), Gujarat (floods, 2015) and Maharashtra (drought in Marathwada, 2016). We will stay engaged in Kerala and keep up our efforts until the situation returns to normalcy.”

Reliance Foundation, along with Reliance Industries and its group companies, have been undertaking significant relief operations across Kerala.

  • The team is supporting the rescue operations by providing critical updates on weather and locations of temporary shelters via RelianceFoundation Information Services (RFIS). It is also providing toll-free helpline numbers to the State disaster management authorities.
  • RF has identified 15,000 affected families who would be provided dry ration kits, utensils, shelter, shoes and clothes in the coming days. The bulk of the material will be supplied by Reliance Retail.

Reliance Retail

  • Through Reliance Retail, supplies such as ready-to-eat food, glucose and sanitary napkins have been provided to 160 government-run relief camps, sheltering about 50,000 people.
  • A large consignment of relief material, weighing about 2.6 MT, has been handed over to the Government of Maharashtra. It will be transported by air to Kerala.
  • 7.5 lakh units of apparel, 1.5 lakh pairs of footwear and dry grocery are being mobilised for distribution to the affected people in Kerala
  • The assistance from Reliance Retail for the flood relief activities is worth close to Rs. 50 Crore.
