🤝 Our Mission
To serve one hot, dignified meal every evening to the most neglected people of our society—daily wage workers, beggars, elderly, the homeless, and street-dwelling poor.
📍 No Fixed Place — Because Hunger Moves
Shitala Canteen is mobile: we go where hunger is found — footpaths, railway platforms, bus stops, local markets, temple premises, slums, and under flyovers. Each evening volunteers serve in a new area where help is needed most.
Typical spots
- Footpaths & roadside dwellings
- Railway platforms & bus stops
- Local markets & temple premises
- Slums & road-side shelters
💰 How It Works
₹49 is raised via public donation (80G eligible). The beneficiary contributes a symbolic ₹1. Each ₹50 serves one dinner with dignity and care.
Beneficiary contributions are recorded under “Beneficiary Contribution – Symbolic – Non-80G” in our accounts.
🙏 Sponsor a Day — Feed with Name
