Feeding The Poor
Date: 12-Mar-2020, Location: A Construction Site at Gurgaon
Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam is a philosophy that tries to foster an understanding that the whole of humanity is one family and that is what JOY STORY FOUNDATION aims to propagate.
Under our Initiative- `FEED THE POOR’ we managed to do our first activity where we served freshly cooked nutritious food to approx.500 construction workers at a site in Gurgaon.
There can be nothing more benevolent then feeding the one’s who do not have access to even the basics; the migrant workers who live on meagre daily wages, just enough to support their less then basic livelihood.
Our intent to spread `JOY’ is enlarging each day and we are happy that we were able to bring smiles on hundreds of faces today.
