Hoshiarpur/Daljit Ajnoha:- The District Red Cross Society, Hoshiarpur, under the able guidance of Deputy Commissioner-cum-President, District Red Cross Society, Hoshiarpur, Ms. Aashika Jain, IAS, is running ‘Sanjhi Rasoi’ in Mohalla Ish Nagar, Hoshiarpur. Through this kitchen, nutritious lunch is being provided to the general public at a nominal rate of just ₹10 per meal plate. More than 500 needy people benefit from this facility every day.
Secretary of the Red Cross Society, Mr. Mangesh Sood, informed that to ensure the continued operation of this noble initiative and increase public participation, the Society has launched the ‘Book-a-Day’ initiative. Under this initiative, anyone can contribute ₹5,100 and book one day's meals at Sanjhi Rasoi in the name of their family members or loved ones. Through this initiative, people can make special occasions memorable by sponsoring meals on birthdays, wedding anniversaries or in loving memory of a deceased family member. On birthdays, the Red Cross also arranges a cake-cutting ceremony at Sanjhi Rasoi.
As part of this initiative, today, Mr. Ajesh Gupta, a resident of Chandigarh, contributed ₹5,100 to Sanjhi Rasoi under the ‘Book-a-Day’ initiative on the occasion of his son Uday Gupta’s birthday.
Secretary of the Red Cross Society, Mr. Mangesh Sood, appealed to the general public to join this noble cause. He said that such initiatives not only provide financial support to Sanjhi Rasoi but also connect our personal happiness and cherished memories with social service.
