HUNGER
Rotary Club of Bombay distributed meals and snacks to 6000 underserved in one week at 26 different locations.
From a small child of three years old to a senior citizen of 83, who does not like surprises? It is seen that when a person gets surprised it hits his dopamine system and a person feels happier, energetic, and gets new positive thoughts for coming times. Six thousand such people got these snack kits to surprise this month. Meals and snacks were a variety of cake-juice, pav bhaji, nuts, chole-rice, dal-roti, sabzi-poori, jalebi-fafda, samosa-kachori, cheese sandwiches, ladoo-barfi, poha-upma, chiwda-chikki, biscuits-cookies to name a few.
The meals snacks were curated keeping the area and age in mind as this drive was done in 26 different locations having infants to elderly.
