Urban poverty in India is over 25 percent; close to 8 crore people in urban areas live below the poverty line. The urban poor (homeless and slum dwellers) are vulnerable in all aspects of quality of life including economic, social, educational, health, living condition etc. Eighty per cent of their meager earnings go towards obtaining food, leaving very little for meeting the costs of living in an increasingly monetized society.  
 Mission Save 1 lakh families is an endeavor to deliver monthly ration packets to 1 lakh urban poor families in one year. 
 Mission Save 1 lakh families is an endeavor to deliver monthly ration packets to 1 lakh urban poor families in one year. All it takes is Rs.1000 per family every month (cost of 2 or three coffees in a cafe!!) and you will enable between 4 to 6 lakh children, adults and elderly to conquer hunger and aspire for better health, education, livelihood and shelter.Let’s take responsibility. Let’s invest and be part of the solution to end hunger amongst the urban poor.
