FOOD BANK FOR THE POOR SANGOLDA GOA is attempting to feed 5000 VEG meals on 1.5.2022, which is LABOUR DAY & a Sunday within 2 hours flat.
It's all happening between 11.30 am to 1.30 pm .
♡♡♡ Thanks to our Volunteers and their teams across 9 Talukas who will be out there during lunch time in the heat to feed these meals.
♡♡♡ Food bank is thankful to NAVTARA group of Restaurants for the support of providing these 5000 meals from 7 of their outlets inspite of their restaurants being opened on that day for regular business.
50% of these prepackaged meals are being served to our own local Goans at their doorsteps who might be engaged in some sort of labour work.
10% is on the streets of Goa as we don't want any garbage issues cropping up once these meals are served in the cities.
20% are going to slums and colonies where actual labourers reside.
Rest 20% are going to PWDs , shelter homes, HIV families , etc .
Its not an easy task for any of us .
Planning , co ordination , distribution and transportation is mind blowing and all within 2 hours flat .
We have not been able to cover the talukas
Ponda , Pernem & Sattari as we did not get Volunteers.
4 eminent Goan personalities & 1 buearecrat will be handing over at 5 outlets of Navtara these prepacked Veg meals to our volunteers , all at 11.30am.
It's a testing time for our Food Bank , as very soon we are attempting to daily feed fresh extra food for a start to 5000 people through a
FSSAI / FDA project which is helping to save good food from thrown out daily.
Fresh Food wastage if tackled through our Food Bank across Goa and Supported by the Government of Goa , can easily save for a start 5000 kgs of good extra cooked food from going into the wet garbage daily .
We have requested the Chief Minister Of Goa , who has understood and I an sure to get this request implemented through 2 Government agencies.
Nothing wrong in collecting huge quantities of daily extra good food to feed the poor especially in villages where many such goan families will benefit.
Let's save and reduce wet garbage.
If you would like to help us with a few prepackaged meals do let me know .
You can buy the coupons at any Navtara outlets or donate to our NGO .
ALSO THANKS TO ALL THE BENEFACTORS WHO HAVE BEEN REGULARLY BUYING THE COUPONS FROM NAVTARA in the last 4 years .
Your support is blessed and multiplied .

INCOME TAX act, once you donate to our NGO.
