From March 2020, most of the schools were closed as the country went into a lockdown. These children supported by us, come from very vulnerable sections and even in normal times they were undernoursihed and not getting proper meals as thier parents are very poor.
Now thier parents lost thier jobs and earnings and so the food situation become very critical. So intsead of just feeding the children, we decided to support entire such families. We raised money and supplied Ration Kits consisting of Rice, flour, Oil, Lentils, salt, spices and other needy stuff so that it would suffice for a family of 4 for atleast 15 days.
The lockdwn was however extended to more than two months, so we had to do this 4 times. The condition of many familes was very critical and they needed more support. we tried to do our best and eveb supplied, things like Masks, Sanitaizers and even sanitary Pads as they could not afford these things.
In all with the support of our benevolent donors we were able to support a record 6040 families and the drive is still continuing. This translates to almost 1million meals !
