IIFL Foundation had joined the community efforts towards providing relief to flood affected areas in Assam with support from its local staff volunteers. Assam along with many parts of eastern and north-eastern India has been severely impacted by seasonal floods affecting lives, livelihoods and disrupting infrastructure and daily lives of millions of individuals.
