The Anti Hunger Squad Foundation, initiated by Zeeshan Majid, provides daily food assistance to those in need, particularly patients and their familie Read mores outside hospitals. Zeeshan, an MBA graduate, was inspired to start this project after assisting an injured man and realizing the dire need for such support. Since its inception on 20th May 2018, the programme has been consistently providing nourishing meals, primarily vegetable pulao or khichdi, to approximately 350 individuals each day. Zeeshan personally oversees the preparation and distribution, ensuring that the beneficiaries receive quality meals. His dedication to this cause is evident in his self-funded approach and his commitment to visiting various government hospitals, with a focus on Chittaranjan Hospital and NRS Hospital, where he witnesses firsthand the impact of his efforts on the grateful recipients.
