At just five, Purnima Mallick from Cuttack, #Odisha, is battling Inborn Error of Immunity with Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). She was receiving treatment at @ims_sum in Bhubaneswar before being referred to @wadiahospitals, Mumbai, for a bone marrow transplant. Her father is a daily-wage labourer, and with limited means, staying in Mumbai while ensuring Purnima received the treatment she needed was a challenge. For over a month, they had been managing on their own, unaware of the support available to families coming to Mumbai for treatment. When the request for help reached us, we connected them with @AccessLifeIndia, who have now arranged accommodation for Purnima and her family. Access Life provides a Home Away From Home for children undergoing treatment for serious medical conditions and their caregivers. Through its centres, it offers accommodation, nutritious meals, transportation to hospitals, counselling and other essential support, helping families navigate the challenges of prolonged treatment away from home. We are glad that Purnima and her family now have a safe place to stay during this difficult time. Thank you, @AccessLifeIndia, for stepping in to help. We hope every step of Purnima's treatment brings her closer to recovery. Wishing her and her family strength for the journey ahead. #IndiaCares

Paraded through busy traffic, with hard concrete beneath his feet, was how Manu spent his days as a โ€˜beggingโ€™ elephant. Surrounded by the constant sounds of honking vehicles, the noise and the chaos of busy streets, one can only imagine what life must have been like for a blind elephant so far from the natural world he was born into. Today, when Manu steps out for his walks, the sounds around him are different. He can hear the birds calling, the leaves rustling in the breeze, and all the little sounds that make up natureโ€™s very own orchestra. He can take his time, explore at his own pace, reach out to pluck leaves from trees, follow unfamiliar scents with his trunk, and feel the softness of grass beneath his feet. And after everything Manu has been through, seeing him walk so freely, and find comfort in the natural world around him fills our hearts with a happiness that words can hardly describe.

The increase has slowed again, but Mumbai is now within 1.3 percentage points of last yearโ€™s level and has crossed 88% storage. From ~5% in June to 90% in a month, this had been one insane story! ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป

Itโ€™s summer, and the elephants at our centres know the perfect recipe to chill on a hot day. A good friend, a great chilling spot, and a perfect treat, i.e. papaya! Together, Holly and Kalpana, are enjoying this summer season like nobody else!

Water started flowing again at the historic Flora Fountain after the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation cleaned the basin following a report by Mid-Day. Officials said the 162-year-old fountain will now run daily with help from civic staff until a maintenance contract is finalised for regular upkeep and proper operation. โœ๐Ÿป: @Eeshanpriya , @raje_ashish ๐Ÿ“ธ: @raje_ashish
