Micro Project seeks to continue a community-based kitchen in a remote areas of Guntur district, India. Our mission is to provide daily meals to 60 neglected elderly individuals who are at high risk of starvation due to lack of family or neighbor support, or because of illness.

To achieve this, we aim to raise $1500, which will sustain the provision of daily meals for two months
