Background to Relationship between KAI & Water Survival Box
Since establishing a relationship between Khalsa Aid International (KAI) and the Rotary Club charity, Water Survival Box (WSB), in October 2017, Assam was the third occasion in which the organisations collaborated to distribute a consignment of the WSBs to those affected by devastating regional floods in India.
The terms of the distribution remain the same, WSB will provide the consignment, will ship the consignment to the nearest international airport and will cover the costs for this. KAI will receive the consignment; they will clear the consignment through customs at the airport and transport it to the storage facility located close to the beneficiaries
