Dear Patrons,
A warm welcome to our latest report on feeding Initiative. We hope you enjoy reading the same
The Covid-19 Pandemic had an immense impact on the world’s poor. There is virtually no aspect of livelihood and employment that COVID-19 has not interfered with. The pandemic disrupted every area of the healthcare system worldwide and has had a particularly devastating impact on women and children.
El Shaddai has started distributing mid-day meals from April 2022 to children from marginalized communities and through the valuable support of sponsors and well- wishers we have been able to distribute 19,444 meals to the children. The community workers of El Shaddai work tirelessly to distribute these meals at the El Shaddai Shelters and Slum areas. Every day these meals are distributed to 500 children from various places in Goa such as Panjim, Calangute, Margao and Vasco. It costs us Rs. 45/- per meal and we want to be able to distribute more such meals to the children and we look forward to the continued support of well-wishers and sponsors in achieving our mission to end malnutrition and hunger.
We also have the ongoing ‘meals on wheels’ distribution called “Manna Khanna” which provides meals to people from poor communities. The worst affected and still are being affected is none other than those living in poverty. Every day our community worker distributes fresh and hot home cooked meals, which are neatly packed in parcels. Till date we have been able to provide manna meals to 67,9015 people in the state of Goa.
We aim to reach out to more and more people and with your help and donations, we will be able to do so.
Our end goal with this report is a push toward compassionate, thoughtful action that recognizes we are part of a global community. Covid-19 is still an ongoing Pandemic and El Shaddai will continue to help all those who are affected. It is in our hands to close the gap between the “Have’s” and “Have’s not”.
Through this project we will be able to curb malnutrition, starvation, and help in improving quality of life.
Our work towards this project would not be possible without the help and support of your donations. So we take the opportunity to thank you for your kind contributions in making this possible.
Thanking you
regards,
El Shaddai Charitable Trust
