A Vital Push for Panjab & Farmers
As we approach the end of a tumultuous year marked by the floods in Panjab, our hearts and efforts are firmly with the small farmers who face the monumental task of rebuilding their lives. UNITED SIKHS has been at the forefront, helping families navigate the aftermath of this natural disaster, and we’ve made significant strides together.
I extend a heartfelt invitation for you to be part of our mission—restoring the dignity and self-reliance of Panjab’s farmers. With the planting season fast approaching, our farmers need these seeds now more than ever.
Here’s how your contribution can make a difference:
- $30 can provide seeds for an acre of farmland.
- $100 can support the revival of an entire small farm.
- $500 can aid multiple farmers in restoring their livelihoods.

With your continued support, our comprehensive 3-part Panjab Flood Relief Program is now in Phase 3.
Your generosity has fueled our comprehensive 3-phase flood relief program in Panjab. In Phase 1, our teams swung into action, reaching out across the vast expanse of more than 1500 villages – from Ropar to Jalandhar, from Gurdaspur to Ferozepur, and beyond. Food, fresh water, everyday essentials, mosquito nets, comforting mattresses, and vital cattle feed – every need was addressed.
Understanding the health risks posed by the floodwaters, our teams of doctors and nurses held dozens of medical camps. They combated diseases, treated infections, and stood as a protective shield against the threats of the stagnant floodwaters. Their tireless efforts brought relief to over 150,000 people.
In Phase 2, with over 3,000 liters of diesel, we cleared floodwaters and washed away the intrusive river sand from farms. We ensured the livelihood of our farmers by providing fodder for close to 1,300 cattle. Beyond the immediate necessities, we restored roofs, helped rebuild homes and assisted communities to build embankments to guard against future calamities.
As we approach the onset of Phase 3, our mission goes beyond just bricks and mortar. Before the chill of November sets in, a crucial task remains: we must ensure the small farmers of Punjab can sow their fields this sowing season. It’s here that the true spirit of recovery begins. With just $30, an entire acre of farmland can be revived, bringing life, sustenance, and hope back to a family.
Let’s ensure that as we step into 2024, no farmer feels alone, no field remains barren.
