Activity Report from MFT - Food Distribution at Asha Deep Centers

In addition to providing education and scholarships, a pillar of MFT’s programs is serving nutritious and consistent meals to the children. Part of what makes MFT special is their ability to partner with local companies and members to provide the very best to the children in support of their education. In 2021 alone, CGOU’s fundraising efforts will enable MFT to provide the children and their families over 100,000 meals.

Food Distribution At Asha Deep Centres & Swami Vivekanand Society

Under

Silox India Pvt. Ltd. CSR Project

*Silox India Pvt. Ltd. has been working closely with Mr. Shardul Patel of Social Responsibility Foundation (SRF) and Ronak Bhai of MI-MFT for the benefit of Ashadeep kids at all centers.* This also includes three centers that have been recently started at Swami Vivekanand Society, near Arya Kanya Vidyalaya. *As part of their CSR, they have started distributing nutritious food on daily basis to all kids (approx. 500 in no.)* in these centers as per the centers' timings from the beginning of this month.

Mr. Rajesh Vaidya, CHRO & Head Sustainability, Mr. Niraj Sandesara, Head Marketing, Ms.Shreya Ashat took a special interest in this project. Ms. Shreya along with CSR team of Silox India did an amazing job of covering all centers (operating in different parts of the city) in the first two weeks. Food is delivered on time at every center and the taste and quality of food are very good whether it is breakfast or lunch.

In the very first week, we (our MI Team) have tasted the food both times ( breakfast & lunch). Food is very delicious and all our kids are very delighted to get such nice and nutritious food. The daily menu given by Silox India is as follows:

*Monday Idly Sambhar Chutney / Khaman Banana*

*Tuesday Poori Bhaji/ Besan Chilla and Chutney Banana*

*Wednesday Aalu Parantha & Chutney / Poori Chole Banana*

*Thursday Uttapam Chutney / Sabudana Khichadt Banana*

*Friday Upama Chutney / Thepla Sweet chutney Sprout*

*Saturday Veg Noodles/ Mendu wada & Sambhar/ Muthiya Banana*

*We deeply appreciate the effort, time, compassion, and care behind this entire initiative not forgetting the financial part.*

Silox India CSR team has indeed done a very commendable job, with help from Mr. Ronak Panchal, Asha Deep teachers, volunteers, Catering Staff & his team. The initiative was indeed very timely and brought a lot of happiness to the beneficiaries.
