Prerana has over the years reached out to the flood affected people of Assam and helped in whatever way possible. This year too, Assam suffered from devastating floods. The executive committee members of Prerana discussed this issue and all agreed that something should be done to help the people.

Barpeta, a neighbouring district of Kamrup (M) was badly affected. The DC Varnali deka was contacted and she ensured that all arrangements were made for the visit by Prerana Members.

Prerana decided to distribute 12 sewing machines to young women (BPL Category) of flood affected areas of Barpeta district in order to make them self-reliant.

Prerana also distributed 100 food packets for infants and very small children of the flood affected area. The selection of deserving the beneficiaries was made by the district administration.

On 2nd October 2015, around seven senior members of Prerana, President Mrs Suman Pipersenia, Mrs Monika Jindal, Mrs Suchitra Pyarelal, Mrs Shakuntala Mewara, Mrs Anjali Jain, Mrs Anamika Tiwari and Mrs Shaguphta Husain travelled to Barpeta from Guwahati. The DC had arranged for the distribution of the sewing machines and food packets at DRDA auditorium hall in Barpeta Town. The hall was filled with beneficiaries, young children, media person and officials.
