Give daily healthy meals to the aged in India

Dear friends and donors, Namaste,

Greetings from BASS!

We are very grateful for your ongoing love, compassion, support and partnership to the elderly people in our project. Your generosity helps us to care, protect and provide daily meals to them.

All the elderly people in our project send their heartfelt gratitude and blessings to you and your loved ones for your continued help.

Our project has been operating a daily meal program for 80 vulnerable elderly people in two locations in Guntur district since 2020. Every day, the elderly people gather at the centers by 10 AM and have meetings and catch up with each other. They have lunch and stay for some time there before going back to their houses. They are very happy to mingle with other elderly people in the center and enjoy their time together.

We have also provided breakfast nutrition Ragi malt, wheat,  Semia Cookies and tea powder   groceries kits to the elderly people to have some extra nutrition during the morning or evening times. All the elderly people are very happy with this.

Many poor elderly people are identified as very weak, suffering from ill health and having no one to care for them. That is why we started this project to take care of some of the identified needy elderly people in two locations in Guntur district. This project is very successful and must continue as we are very happy to see the smiley faces of the elderly people at the center.

Unfortunately, two elderly people passed away during this quarter due to ill health. We pray for their souls and their families.

We also face some challenges in running this project. We are not able to get sufficient donations to this project. We received only USD 116 during this quarter. The prices of food groceries, vegetables and milk have increased a lot. This project needs at least USD 500 per month to operate one center and cover the expenses for 50 elderly people.

We humbly request you to kindly make a new donation or subscribe for a monthly donation and join us in caring and protecting the elderly people.

Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity.

Dear friends, donors Namaste, 

Thank you so much for your continued love, compassion, support and partnership to the elderly people in the project to care, protect and provide daily meals. 

All the elderly people in the project are sending their heartfelt gratitude and blessings to you and your loved ones for your continued help.

This project is continuously operating a daily meal program to 80 vulnerable elderly people in two locations in Guntur district since 2020. All the targeted project elderly people gather every day at the centers by 10 AM and have meetings and daily catch up and have lunch and stay some time there and later go to their houses. Now they are very happy to mingle with the other elderly in the centre and joyfully engaged and have fun and happiness.  The project staff and volunteers are also distributing daily lunch boxes to the sick elderly at their homes as they are not able to move.  We are also provided plates, glasses and boxes to the elderly as sometimes they are taking food to their homes to eat for evening times. Now in the summer of May 2023 temperatures are increasing at a high reaching 47 degrees Celsius, and elderly are not able to bear it, hence we are also giving extra curd and    butter milk to them. 

Actually many poor Elderly people are identified as very weak, suffering with ill health and no one caring for them.  Therefore this project started for them to take care of some of the identified needy elderly in two locations in Guntur district. This project is very successful and must continue as we are very happy to see the smiley faces of the elderly at the centre to meet other people here. 

Unfortunately we are not able to get sufficient donations to this project, just USD 150 received during this quarter. And all the   rates of food groceries, vegetables and milk have increased a lot. This project needs at least USD 500 per a month to operate one centre full operational expenses to cover for 50 elderly people.    

I humbly request you to kindly make a new donation or subscribe for monthly donation and join with us to care and protect elderly people.  

Once thank you so much
