NEW DELHI: The FeedMyCity campaign has allowed people from all walks to life to contribute in achieving the target of 1 million meals to people from underprivileged background during the ongoing nationwide lockdown to contain the Covid-19 pandemic.Sharing the experience, K Ganesh , serial entrepreneur & a co-trustee of KVN Foundation said that the success of the campaign proves the selfless giving-nature of India."Our experience over the past few weeks has reminded us of something that we tend to forget: that giving is in India’s DNA. In the course of our work, we have come across startling examples which have reinforced our belief that in India, people give no matter how little they possess," said Ganesh.Sharing some stories, Ganesh talked about Deepa Roseminj, a domestic helper based in Mumbai who was extremely concerned about the people after watching news stories of mass migrations and loss of livelihoods. Roseminj who hails from Chhattisgarh is a trusted helper at the home of a businesswoman through whom she got to know about FeedMyCity campaign. After her employer contributed to the campaign, Deepa too wanted to help and pledged meals for 10 people in Mumbai. She has expressed her wish to be able to do more for the people in need given that the lockdown has been extended.Sharing another story, Ganesh said a student from Bangalore has pledged to contribute one meal every day to FeedMyBangalore and has expressed his interest to do more."We do not believe these are exceptions.
