“Hunger knows no friend but its feeder”.

Tricity came out in huge numbers to volunteer for the cause and helped Big FM MJs Vishesh Megha Gurri and Amar and the team of Robinhood Army led by Shivani distribute the food items
Various places were identified across Panchkula Mohali and Chandigarh where malnourished children, patients or laborers are found in huge numbers. After identifying the places on 14th and 15th August the drive was started since early morning hours near Mansa Devi Complex and later spread across the slum areas of sector 14 Panchkula, PGI, GMCH sector 32, various Snehalyas, Bal Sadans Orphanages, cycle and rickshaw stands, slum areas near airport chowk and near Dara studios.
India being the world 2nd largest country in food production is still facing the challenge of malnourished children and youngsters or people not having enough to support them for food. These kind of initiatives certainly bring in forefront the awareness about the cause and how collectively we need to come together to support the same.
