EP-39: Feeding from Far ft. Paritosh Pant on UNSETTLING by Amrita Sukumar
Episode 39 is a conversation with Paritosh Pant about his campaign FEEDING FROM FAR.
When the Covid-19 pandemic hit the nation and a lockdown was announced, Paritosh knew that there is going to be a huge hunger problem. He wanted to do something for the people who lived in Govandi. He along with his team started this campaign FEEDING FROM FAR to make the people of the community self-sufficient. The main objective of the campaign was to raise funds and set systems in place that would help the locals manage to procure essentials, cook, pack, and deliver the meal packets to each and every household in the community. The systems helped the residents of Govandi become self-reliant.
But even though the lockdown is lifted, the situation of the locals have not improved. There are still families to be served. So, I request you all on behalf of Paritosh and FEEDING FROM FAR, to do your bit and donate. No amount is too less.
Rs. 700 can feed a family of 5 for a week and Rs. 10 is the cost of one meal. Every penny counts.

Systems that were put in place for the community kitchen to run smoothly. 6. The permissions required from governing bodies. 7. A few stories from his experience with the campaign. 8. A message for people who want to start a similar campaign and help bridge the gap.
