Silver Innings and WE Group - Mission Feed Hungry - Updated on 16th April 2021
'Mission Feed Hungry - Mira Bhayandar' Silver Innings for Humanity Foundation in association with 'WE Group' operation started from 20th March 2020 till 31st May 2020 , but later Silver Innings for Humanity Foundation continued this humanitarian work till date, going on for 12 months now continued in year 2021.....
The Corona virus pandemic does not differentiate according to skin colour, religion or gender. Corona affects us all. The #coronavirus has badly hit those who already have difficulties like homeless, old, sick, migrant workers, poor.
The corona lockdown has resulted in many daily wage earners loosing out their jobs resulting them to face a difficult situation to feed the basic food to themselves and their families.
It was this time WE, a informal group of friends with help from Silver Innings, planned to deliver them with 15 days of grocery / ration requirements (repeating the cycle if the lockdown continues) to people of Mira Bhayandar Municipal area only. But we did not stopped at that, while reaching out to supply dry ration to needy, we had to meet demand of Medicine supply to Palliative care patient, Ration and Medicine for Senior Citizens, Uncooked Rice for Animal Feeders, Ration requirement of Orphanage and Safety Kits for Police and Municipal staff and Notebooks to Tribal students.
