On a chilly winter evening, the Smile For All team in Chhattisgarh turned up the heat by distributing blankets to those who needed them most. The initiative saw volunteers braving the cold to ensure the homeless and underprivileged didnât have to endure the biting night air alone.
Â
The drive was a joint effort, with local donors contributing blankets and the Chhattisgarh team stepping up to identify deserving recipients. From slums to street corners, every corner of the city saw a sprinkle of kindness as warm blankets changed hands.
Â
The Cold Reality Chhattisgarhâs winter nights can drop to single digits, making life tough for those without shelter. For many, a blanket isnât just a piece of fabricâitâs a barrier between health and hardship. The team knew this, and thatâs why they acted.
Â
The Warm Gesture Led by dedicated volunteers, the team wrapped blankets around the elderly, children, and families sleeping rough. âFeeling this warmth after months of struggle⊠God bless you,â said an elderly recipient, clutching a thick woolen blanket.
