The government has mandated one permanent shelter equipped with essential services for every one lakh people. Bengaluru has only 10 for a population of over one crore.
Eight days back, a motley crew of good samaritans started distributing food to the hungry and homeless in Bengaluru. Come tomorrow, they are likely to have fed more than a lakh hungry stomachs.
If every home in Bengaluru cooked an additional meal, would it ensure that the hungry don’t go to bed on an empty stomach? Here’s a community initiative that’s looking to do just that.
Would you consider sleeping out of your home? Participate in Under The Stars to experience the realities of the homeless, and help NGOs working to provide them shelter.
