Respected Patron Namaste!
In slum and street environments, families often face challenges related to nutrition and healthy dietary practices. Limited access to resources and knowledge about nutritious food can lead to inadequacies in the diets of both children and their mothers. This nutritional gap can have adverse effects on the health and well-being of individuals, particularly children who are in critical stages of growth and development. The lack of awareness about balanced diets and proper nutrition exacerbates the issue.
To address the nutritional challenges faced by slum and street families, Rajasthan Samgrah Kalyan Sansthan initiated the Healthy Diet Drive, Nutrition Food & Cooking Classes Program. This comprehensive initiative targeted 400 children from 12 different slums and streets along with their mothers. The program focused on both providing nutritious food items and imparting knowledge about healthy dietary practices. As part of the program, 5 kg each of essential food items like soya bean, dalia, kala chana, moong dal, rajma, and others were distributed to the families. The distribution was complemented by cooking classes where mothers were taught how to prepare nutritious meals using these ingredients. The use of card sheets and flipcharts facilitated interactive learning, illustrating the importance of a balanced diet for the overall well-being of the family.
The Healthy Diet Drive, Nutrition Food & Cooking Classes Program by Rajasthan Samgrah Kalyan Sansthan has had a profound impact on the lives of 400 slum and street children and their mothers across 12 locations. The distribution of essential food items, coupled with cooking classes, addressed the immediate need for nutritious meals and empowered mothers with the knowledge to sustain healthier dietary practices. The program not only provided tangible resources but also facilitated an educational component that will have a lasting impact on the families. Mothers learned how to prepare nutritious meals using the provided food items, enhancing their ability to provide healthier options for their children. Feedback from the children and their mothers reflected gratitude for the program, emphasizing the value of both the provided food items and the educational sessions.
Once again thank you so much for your valuable Support.
Many Regards
