Water can give life and take away.

This resonates true in many parts of India that suffer due to floods every year during the rainy season. This hat is my attempt to give what I can from my craft to my community.

I want to use the relief funds set up by the state governments to help those stranded and in need of rescue in the form of clothes, food or shelter.

Profits of the sale of this hat till the end of the year 2019 will go to the Chief Ministers fund for Maharashtra Flood Relief and Kerala Flood Relief , the two places I call home.
