FOOD DRIVE FOR THE NEEDY- CHRISTMAS DRIVE
I was highly inspired from the Robinhood Army, a zero-fund organisation that provides food to the needy. Its motto "SERVE THE HUNGRY CITIZEN" motivated me a lot to work and do something for the society.
I am a scout and I belong to North 24 Parganas ( Barrackpore Local Association). I always had a wish to do something for the needy on behalf the Robinhood Army. Now I got an opportunity to be a part of it and to serve the hungry citizens. We found an orphanage and hence decided to spend the Christmas evening with there with the kids. 💚
Date of food drive:- 25.12.2020
Location of food drive:- Ubique Lodge, Barrackpore, Kolkata, West Bengal
By carrying out the same, I was able to help out 70 needy children with cakes, biscuits, maggi packets and we had also cut a Christmas cake with them. Along with the food we gave them stationary and Santa caps.
I've learnt that when you donate food or feed the needy for atleast a day or two, the amount of satisfaction you get from within is immeasurable. You also get to motivate many of the people living around you so that some day in the future they can also do something for the society.
