The combined effort makes sure the food distribution service will have a longer run
For more than a month, six parents are cooking food for the needy and the homeless in Chennai. They are carrying out this service to support an initiative taken up by two professors of New College in Royapettah — Sulaiman and M. Ansar. The volunteering-parents’ children are studying at the college. They live at Pulianthope, Mirsahibpet (near Ice House), Tirumangalam, Royapettah and Triplicane. They run roadside shops and relying on daily earnings. When the lockdown came into effect on May 10, they have been rendered out of work. Now, they support the two professors’ initiative by cooking breakfast and lunch for them.
