Devashrayam Noon Meal Project – Satiating Hunger

Food is a basic need for existence and satisfying the intolerable pangs of hunger is the greatest service to mankind. When hunger combines with sickness, the suffering is more. Realizing the human aspect of this problem, Devashrayam had launched this unique project. 

It provides hot and wholesome meals to the poor inpatients in the District Hospital, Palakkad.

This scheme was launched on 7th June 1996.  It started by supplying food packets to the poor patients of the general ward at the hospital.  Food prepared at a member’s home with the help of friends and neighbours was distributed once a week, on Sundays.  As awareness grew and funds started trickling in, the scheme was extended to all days.

“Today not less than 175 poor patients are fed on a daily basis. At an average of Rs 1300 per day, the Society spends Rs 40000/- a month towards this yeoman service.”

Remember: - Next time you celebrate occasions like birthdays, weddings etc spare a thought for the hungry poor.
