Feeding strays

Rtn. Priyasri Patodia, Chair of the Animal Welfare Committee, Rotary Club of Bombay, is happy to inform members that thanks to Director Framroze Mehta and President Preeti Mehta, RCB is donating Rs 1 lakh to Abodh Aras or WSD for the purpose of feeding strays who have been left hungry due to the epidemic.

Thousands of stray cats and dogs in India depend on food and waste from markets, restaurants and grocery shops. But with coronavirus sending people into isolation and public establishments shutting down, strays are having a hard time
finding food. Even individuals who feed are confined to homes.

Abodh Aras or WSD, to whom RCB and our Animal Welfare Committee have been attached for five to six years and who is also known to many of us, has made this request.

WSD takes the responsibility of giving us a report of usage of the food they will distribute to individuals or other smaller NGO s who feed strays.
