Campaign by Udhyam Learning Foundation
Goal: Feed families, in and around Bangalore, whose livelihoods have been severely impacted by Covid. Provide a balanced meal that includes rice, vegetables and protein (lentils, sprouts, soya etc).
About us:
My name is Jaggi Nadig, a native Bengalurian. I have worked in the corporate world for the past 2 + decades and lived in US and South East Asia. I moved back to Bangalore in 2019.
Sitting through the first lockdown period has been an eye opener in many ways and has motivated me to act. The day the restrictions were lifted (8th May), I approached my high-school classmate, Sudhanva, who runs a provision store and a catering business in Bangalore, and decided to get the ball rolling.
Progress so far:
The canteen team was re-assembled on 9th May and our first batch of 500 packets was delivered on the 11th of May to many families/individuals in Gandhi Bazaar, VV Puram, KR Market, Hosakeerahalli slum.
We have also distributed Body soaps, Story books to kids and celebrated one of our team member's birthday by distributing sweets.
As of 22nd May 2020, this campaign has already provided 6000 meals in total, at 500 meals a day.
Our Operations:
At the kitchen and during distribution, we follow very strict safety and hygienic standards:
We use hand sanitizers, wear masks, hand gloves and maintain social distancing
All vegetables and supplies are first stored in a quarantine zone for 24 hours, then washed with vinegar and salt water and left out in the Sun before entering the kitchen
All our packets are well packaged and delivered with no touch
Cost:
We are running at a total cost of Rs 30 per packet.
The canteen folks have generously allowed us to use their truck for distribution.
What you can do:
1. No contribution is small. Help in any way you can.
2. Celebrate your birthdays and milestones with these families in need
3. Spread the word and spread the happiness. This campaign is to help raise funds to provide food for those whose livelihoods have been affected due to Covid.
