Million Trees and Billion Smiles Foundation organised a compassionate Blanket Distribution Drive across several areas of Bengaluru, focusing on individuals who sleep on pavements, in front of closed shops, bus stops, railway premises, roadside platforms, and other exposed spaces.
As temperatures drop during the winter nights, many vulnerable individuals — including daily-wage workers, elderly people, and those without shelter — are forced to endure extremely harsh conditions without basic protection. Recognising this urgent need, our volunteers visited high-footfall and high-risk locations late in the evening and distributed warm blankets directly to those spending the night outdoors.
