The Robin Hood Army in Chennai, is helping thousands of people who are in hunger, by collecting the excess foods and distribute to the needy. This initiative is happening most of the major cities in India.
In Cities like Chennai, every day many celebrations, Marriages, birthday parties other events are happening and lots of foods are being wasted. On the other side children, women, aged people, poor and orphans are going to bed in hunger. The Robin Hood Army is taking a major role in finding excessive foods and distribute to the needy.
Presently many event managers are in touch with this initiative and donate excessive foods. Further, food delivery companies like Suggy, giveaways their canceled food orders.
In Chennai, presently every Friday at 7.30 pm the drive is happening at Chennai Merina beach. Special drives happening based on the food received.
I am really happy to be part of this movement and encourage all the local guides in India to join in their respective cities to fight against hunger and food wastewaste by reporting both excessive food and needy people.
Love to hear such stories in your area!
Thank you,
John Peter
