Help Shri Shyam Rasoi Provide Nutritious Meals To The Hungry

How many times have we noticed the old man on the broken footpath, too tired to even get up on his own or the malnourished baby sitting on her mother’s lap, crying? How many times have we stopped to think about when they had their last meal? 

Every day, millions of people in India struggle to get a plate of food. The pandemic has only worsened their plight. Many have been left without a job or a home. Today, they're struggling to feed themselves and their families. It’s after watching people like them suffer every day that Pravin Kumar Goyal decided to do something to help.

He started Shri Shyam Rasoi a few months ago, and in this short time has managed to touch the lives of thousands. It all started when amidst the pandemic, Pravin Kumar noticed that many were going days without being able to afford food. His heart broke when he watched them pick food from the garbage. He then found his mission - to feed as many people in need as possible.

“I’ve seen so many people who have starved for days because of this crisis. My goal is to make sure no one goes to bed hungry. When we started making meals we used to charge 10 rupees, but we soon realized that even that was a big amount for a lot of people. I charge the 1 rupee so that they don’t feel like they are begging for the meal, and they don’t hesitate to come here.” 

However, there are many who can’t even afford the 1 rupee, and Pravin Kumar welcomes them with open arms. He feeds around 1200-1500 people full meals every day in Delhi. These meals include 3-4 kinds of vegetables, rice, roti, and a sweet. For some, this is their first meal in days, but at Shyam Rasoi they make sure it won’t be their last. 

Supported by six staff members, Shri Shyam Rasoi provides meals at old age homes, orphanages, schools for the physically challenged, and any other place that requires it. They have even expanded to provide parcel services to neighboring areas.

Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, Pravin Kumar can’t get as many food materials as he used to. He now faces the challenge of continuing to feed the thousands of people that rely on him for their daily meals. Without him, they will have nowhere to go. 

Your support will help Pravin Kumar save the thousands of people starving in Delhi.
