In 2025, the province of Punjab experienced extensive flooding that threatened to take away the homes, livestock and livelihoods of many families. Despite this devastation, the Serve Humanity Serve God (SHSG) Charitable Trust has committed to continuing its path of seva – selfless service – to provide disaster relief and help restore hope for communities affected by flooding, to serve humanity and serve God.
Rebuilding Lives, One Home at a Time.
Since the flood, SHSG’s ground teams have been working hard and steadfast in the most affected areas, such as Firozpur and supporting villages, where water reached between 8–10 feet. The Trust has initiated large multi-home reconstruction efforts for families who no longer had a home or home but in the worst situation to return in order to prevent end users from still being displaced and frequently living in temporary shelters.
With support from the Sangat (community), Jet Singh Trust, Sahaita (USA), and many generous individuals, SHSG seva continues in flood-affected areas of Punjab.
Due to support from Sahaita (USA), SHSG is building the 17th new home, representing a signal of shelter, hope, and stabilization for families who have lost everything. Each new home is a family that can stabilize, regain dignity, and once again feel hope after months of challenges.
Supporting Livelihoods: Donating Cows to Affected Families
For the families who lost their livestock, which is most often their only source of income, SHSG extended seva by donating cows to help them rebuild their livelihood. With the generous and trusted partnership of the Jet Singh Trust, these cow donations were possible and significantly enhanced SHSG’s impact on the ground.
Through this, many farmers are producing milk again, earning income and supporting their families—turning despair back to self-reliance.
Extending Seva Beyond Shelter
SHSG extends service beyond houses in the post-flood relief effort. The Trust continues to provide ration kits, clean water, furniture and daily needed supplies to families who are still recovering from the floods. Each act of seva is a concrete engagement of the mission of the Trust.
“Serving humanity is serving God.”
Seva continues day after day as volunteers and partners are collaborating to make sure that no affected family is left behind.
This way of service work would not be possible without the ongoing support from Jet Singh Trust and Sahaita USA. Together, these organizations have built a chain of compassion that connects communities and rebuilds lives across borders in Punjab.
These groups’ mission truly embodies what is at the heart of humanity – when we come together, we can address some of our greatest challenges.
Join Hands in Seva
Even months after the floods need remains strong. Families in the area still need homes, food other support to begin to rebuild their lives. SHSG Charitable Trust invites everyone individually, organizations and communities – to join together in seva and provide relief to the impacted flood families in Punjab.
Together, we can rebuild lives, restore hope, and keep seva alive.
