The Samoon Family provided a small financial assistance check of ₹17,000 for the treatment

of Miss Bindi, who is bravely battling a serious illness like cancer.

Miss Bindi, a 12th-grade student from Andrapa, Gairsain, Chamoli Garhwal, is fighting a life- threatening illness at AIIMS Rishikesh. Her father passed away during her childhood, and her mother has been struggling to support the family with a widow's pension. The confirmation of Bindi's cancer diagnosis brought a heavy burden of sorrow upon the family.

Although Bindi is receiving treatment through an Ayushman card, the impoverished family does not have enough money for the travel expenses from Gairsain, room and food costs in Rishikesh, and for medications. Upon learning about the Samoon Foundation through someone, her mother submitted an application at the organization’s office. The foundation took immediate action and provided a small assistance check of ₹17,000 on February 12, 2024, assuring further support as needed.

Joy and Hope in Barnu 2: Samoon Foundation Warms Hearts and Young Lives

Date - Wednesday, January 22 2025

On the crisp morning of January 22, 2025, laughter echoed through the quiet lanes

of Barnu 2, Tehri Garhwal, as children gathered at the local Anganwadi Center, eyes

sparkling with excitement. The Samoon Foundation had arrived— not just with warm

sweaters, but with a spirit of care that lit up the entire village.

For the little ones, the sweaters were more than winter clothing— they were a symbol

of warmth, attention, and love. The day was filled with smiles and giggles as the

Foundation also organized games and sweet treats, turning the distribution into a

celebration of community and childhood.

Mrs. Sita Devi, the Village Head, remarked with emotion that the Foundation’s visit had

instilled “new hope and positive energy” throughout Barnu. Mrs. Vinita Rana, Chief

Anganwadi Worker, described the eff ort as nothing short of a “blessing,” especially

for children in such remote regions where resources are scarce. Mrs. Soni Rana,

Chairperson of the Anganwadi Mothers’ Committee, praised the initiative’s thoughtful

touches— sports and chocolate— saying it had “truly uplifted the children's spirits.”

Representing the Foundation, Mr. Rajendra Singh Rangad engaged warmly with children

and parents alike, reinforcing the Foundation’s core belief that every child deserves

not only education but also joy, dignity, and encouragement.

The Anganwadi Assistant and grateful parents echoed the sentiment, applauding the

Foundation's unwavering commitment. This initiative once again demonstrated how

small acts of kindness— especially when delivered with consistency and heart— cancreate lasting impact in a child’s journey toward a brighter future.

As in every year, this year too, the Samoon Family distributed blankets to those in need who spend their nights under the open sky in this biting cold.

 

Date: Wednesday, January 10, 2024

During the harsh winters of December and January, while we enjoy our warm clothes, some people are forced to spend their nights outside. Unfortunately, every year, many lives are lost due to the cold, especially among children and women. For the past eight years, the Samoon Family has celebrated the New Year with a blanket distribution program, and this year was no different, as blankets were distributed to those spending nights in the cold.

The blanket distribution program started on January 8, 2024, in Rishikesh, where blankets and warm clothes were given to the extremely poor and helpless. On January 10, 2024, the Samoon Foundation again distributed blankets to needy families in Shyampur, Khadri, Rishikesh.

No one can predict what will happen next or what difficult days one may have to face.

An amount of ₹1 lakh was directly transferred to the account of kidney patient Ankit by generous donors, while a check of ₹51,000 was provided by the Samoon Foundation

Date: Sunday, December 17, 2023

Ankit Meher, a 22-year-old young man from the village of Bacheti, P.O. Jalna, Almora district, was fighting for his life at AIIMS Rishikesh, holding big dreams for the future. Both of Ankit's kidneys had failed, and the doctors had informed him that a kidney transplant was the only solution. His father wanted to save his son's life by donating his own kidney, but the family did not have enough money to cover these expenses. Despite having an Ayushman card, a significant amount of money was still required.

Thanks to the efforts of Samoon Foundation's esteemed senior member Hemant Nyal (Hemu Bhai), who is also from this village and works in Dubai, a total of ₹1.5 lakh has been raised with the support of Uttarakhandi and non-Uttarakhandi families in Dubai. Out of this, ₹1 lakh was directly transferred to the victim's family account by generous donors, while a check of

₹51,000 was provided by the Samoon Foundation.

The Samoon Foundation provided a small assistance cheque of ₹11,000 for the education of the children of another artist who tragically passed away in an accident.

Date: Thursday, December 12, 2023 

Artists play a crucial role in the preservation and development of culture. Their significant contributions to the enrichment and creation of our rich language, literature, and culture are invaluable. Artists dedicate their skills and talents to bring music, theater, dance, and various art forms to the public, yet the economic development of Uttarakhandi artists has not reached the level it should have.

Sometimes, when artists who have devoted their entire lives to the preservation of culture face misfortunes, their families and children go through very difficult times. Without anyone to care for them, the inability to cover the educational expenses of these artists' children can lead to interruptions in their education.

The Samoon Foundation remains committed to supporting Uttarakhand’s artists and their families in every possible way. Previously, the organization has also provided assistance for the treatment of some artists and financial support for the education of others. In this context, the Samoon Foundation has provided a small assistance cheque of ₹11,000 for the education of the children of another artist who passed away in an accident.
