FOOD BANK FOR THE POOR SANGOLDA GOA is once again serving meals at the Exposition of St Francis Xavier at Old Goa in the Parking lot
( Ribander side ).
We have partnered with NAVTARA group of restaurants who will be providing these meals at a discounted rate to our food bank for the entire 45 days.
It's not free but we have to pay the bills.
Initially we are serving in the afternoon between 1 pm to 2.30 pm
And in a day or two we will also serve
8 am to 9 am .
♡♡♡ Thanks to The Government of Goa @
1. Shri Alex Sequeira, Hon Minister & Deputy Chairman of Exposition Secretariat
2. Shri Sandeep Jacquees, Commissioner of the Exposition.
3. Madam Shila Nagvenkar &
4. Madam Suruchi Shirodker,
for providing Free of Cost the stall to our NGO in the most perfect place as well as organizing the stall .
It was a push from Sir Bosco George Retd IPS our volunteer who suggested that we serve meals to the poor and needy for the entire 45 days.
♡♡♡ We thank our associates and team members for volunteering to assist in serving meals during these 45 days.
Food banks are usually for the poor and the needy and we are blessed to be able to play a small part In providing what we can afford to those who will need this small morsel of food to surfice their hunger.
One query most will have ie :
Funds for 45 days and who is footing the bills ?
Well we invite well wishers and benefactors to support us as we TRY to do the little we can.
An excellent opportunity TO SOW IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD incase you are celebrating any functions during these 45 days like:
》Birthday
》Wedding anniversary
》Death anniversary of a dear one
》Getting married in the coming days
Feeding the poor / BHIKHAREANCHEM JEVONN
Once you donate you can also come along and stand in the stall and serve the food.
We had approached the Government of Goa one month back for two projects :
☆ 1. Feeding the poorest of the poor who will be coming for the Exposition &
☆ 2. Caring and rehabilitation of the weakest of the weak who will and might be on the streets in need of rehabilitation.
We are aware that we were the only NGO submitting both such proposals.
Government officials only went ahead with the food stall.
We are waiting for a reply on the rehabilitation proposal as no human with disabilities or due to poverty should be living on the streets in OLD GOA begging during these 45 days.
WE DARE TO DREAM in ENDING HUNGER & HOMELESSNESS in GOA.
All querries strictly through whatsapp messages only on 8380097564.
No negative comments please on this post as we are focusing on the poorest of the poor who might require a meal and a hand to get off the streets during the Exposition.
St Francis Xavier too would be smiling from above knowing that we are caring for the poorest of the poor during his Exposition.
God bless you all
