Dear Donors and Well-Wishers,
Greetings!
We are pleased to bring you the latest progress report of the Stop Hunger Project, and we are filled with gratitude as we share the strides we’ve made, thanks to your invaluable support.
The project began with 10 families of senior citizens with disabilities and from financially challenged backgrounds. Today, we have reached over 100 families, impacting more than 300 lives. These families are unable to earn due to aging and health issues, and we are proud to continue ensuring that they receive two meals daily through the project.
We are particularly excited to share the story of Jyotsnaben, a woman whose life has been transformed by your support. Jyotsnaben, a 54-year-old woman with low vision, lived with her husband, who was blind, in a slum area of Ahmedabad city. They were street vendors, but when the pandemic hit, they lost their source of income. Tragically, her husband passed away during the pandemic, leaving Jyotsnaben in deep depression and completely dependent on others.
In the early days, her neighbors helped by giving her food, but as time went on, Jyotsnaben was uncertain about her survival. She tried to find work but, due to her age and disability, was unable to. It was during this difficult time that she met Mr. Devraj, a volunteer of the Stop Hunger Project, who introduced her to the program. Devraj explained how the project could provide regular food support, and Jyotsnaben agreed to register her name.
To her surprise, she began receiving ration kits every month, which gave her the security and dignity she had lost. Jyotsnaben’s life began to change, and she regained her confidence. She now hopes to restart her small business and become independent again. She has even requested some financial support to relaunch her business.
Her story is a powerful reminder of why we do what we do—there are many more like Jyotsnaben who are waiting for help. Together, we can make a difference, one family at a time.
As we move into the year 2025, our goal is to reach an additional 100 families under the Stop Hunger Project. With your continued support, we are confident that we can make this happen. We kindly ask you to share the cause with your friends, and family, and on social media so that we can serve even more individuals in need.
Thank you once again for your unwavering generosity and commitment to helping those who need it most. We are deeply grateful for your support.
