Free distribution of food kits and hand Sanitizers to 450 economically
poor, orphan, HIV/AIDS, disabled, sponsor, Migrant, unorganized and
daily wage worker families, by Vimukti Charitable Trust® Pothnal:
The greatest of all virtues is to feed
the hungry
The World today (April 13 2020) is gripped with the pandemic of
Corona Virus. Vimukti Charitable Trust Pothnal takes initiatives to help
economically poor, orphan, sponsor families, deserving laborers in the
rural areas, who are affected by the lockdown. Individuals and families
in cities without work, food, housing or security, are forced to trek
back home to their distant villages, in the hot sun with no support of
food, water, shade or rest, or rides in crowded passing trucks at
considerable expense, and on the way intent only on imposing the
lockdown. Those migrant, unorganized sector and daily wage workers who
have been left behind in metros, cities and towns because of the
lockdown with no transport available to their native villages/towns,
find themselves without income, shelter, and even food, with state
governments struggling to cope up with the problem in overcrowded relief
camps, again exposing these workers to infection. Even some migrant
workers staying back to their work places, staying together in the small
rented house, social distance is impossible for them, they don’t have
enough food grans to survive. Money what they had got, they already had
sent to their family members. Now no money in their hands. They are
walking on foot miles and miles to reach to their home. Since they are
walking, not getting enough food, water, shelter and rest, not
maintaining social distance, they are the one found positive by the
Corona Virus, transmitting the virus from one place to the other.
With all these circumstances economically poor people are struggling to
get one meal per day, identifying such 450 deserving families, Vimukti
flung into action by distributing free food kits and Hand Sanitizers for
their survival. It was a biggest challenge to meet-out the needs of the
people at this moment of struggle. Through the hard efforts and generous
donors, for their sacrifice we could distribute the free food kits like,
sugar, Tea powder, salt, Green grams, coconut oil, dall, Rava, Chilli
powder, coriander powder, edible oil, turmeric powder cumin, master
seed, Soaps, paste Tooth brush, face masks etc. to the economically poor
families who have affected by the lockdown. The families were very
grateful to receive this timely help. We are also happy indeed to thank
for all the sponsors/donors for their generosity. “A smile happens in a
flash, but its memory can last for a lifetime. “May God bless the
cheerful giver”.
