Your One day is Strength for some for many days.

Hi,

I have been here after a long time. And this time, it's for a good cause. The best to my judgment in all the years of blogging I have been involved with. Since 2006, I guess.

I have been in the field of scientific research for almost a decade now. Learned, published and took up new ideas for the future. For long, I had the inculcated a wish to start up a Non-profit and Non-Government Organization for certain social cause. Well that dream is still a long way off, given my present status as a researcher (post doc to be precise); I was studying some aspects and NGOs that have popped up in my homeland, India. One of them being the #Feeding_India organization (https://www.feedingindia.org). This organization have been doing substantial good work in bringing healthy food to underprivileged children, who above caste and religion have a common thing to worship. Food to survive.

This post is to urge you my readers and friends, some of whom I may not even known in person; to contribute to this cause. As of today, the minimum price of donation is below Rs. 500. A price that can feed some of the deprived souls with nutritious food. You dont have to contribute regularly; just a small token on a very special day of your life would be good enough. Say for example your birthday or anniversary or something that comes around atleast once in a year.

I have more than 1000 people in my friend list on facebook. My readers will have similar. India is more than a billion strong and I believe that at least a million can fish off Rs 500 once in a year for such a cause. That would cumulate to a huge fund. I am not saying only for this organization; but there may be several. I found out with my limited means that this organization is Pan India, so named them. (disclaimer: I am not asked to publicise them. Its solely my discretion to mention them in this post. Any cause of this stature is to be considered via this article).

Now people can come up with several questions:
Q. Why should we pay them?
A: Its a cause. Try to stay half fed or starved for a week. You will know the pain. Further, if you are an IT payer, you can save some amount by this donation.

Q. We would prefer to be pompous and donate in a religious establishment. To God!
A: God resides in humans. (not preaching). If you donate some amount in these organizations, you will be making God happy and so will be the God in you. Donate a part of major donation you were to donate in these religious places and the rest here. I dont think the God will be unhappy.

Q. I donot have money.
A: Then ask people who can help. That also is a noble cause in itself.

Your one day of the calender will make several days of their calender. Believe me, it is helpful.
