In August of 2008, Bihar suffered with what is called the worst flood of the decade. The overflow of the Kosi River and the subsequent breach of the embankment caused massive flooding, affecting about 2.3 million lives in the state. Many lives were lost and many completely uprooted. Bihar government reported the official death toll to be around 1500. Those who survived this harrowing fate faced further challenges of fighting disease and hunger. The daunting task of rebuilding their lives from scratch was what lay ahead for millions of these people in Bihar. At this moment of dire need, around 150 Bihari families from the local community joined hands to help their home state at this time of national crisis. A massive fundraiser got underway under some really take-charge, motivated leaders. With the generous support from the local Indian communities and associations, this motivated group collected around $5000. The fund was then donated to the people of Bihar through credited NGOs working in Bihar and Jharkhand. This must needed lifeline helped the government of Bihar to supply food, water, blankets and medicine to the poor and the needy. This story is the story of the unsung heroes. These unsung heroes are the enterprising group of people with a loving, compassionate heart. People of Bihar and Jharkhand in Michigan rallied once again, to help their fellow human beings.

Conquer the ill-natured man by goodness. Conquer the miser with generosity. Conquer the liar with truth."
