The kitchen facility will serve free food in Government hospitals under
the Bhojanamrita Programme and also
supply subsidized meals for the
needy at various locations in the city of Hyderabad in partnership with
GHMC (Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation). Apart from this, the
kitchen will also provide food in market yards for farmers and hamalies.
Bhojanamrita is a project initiated by HKM Charitable Foundation to
feed underprivileged (inpatient) attendants on a daily basis in
government hospitals.
Underprivileged patients in government hospitals need help and
assistance of family members during the course of treatment. The help
& encouragement of these attendants is as important as the
treatment, if not more! In life threatening diseases like cancer, the
role of attendants is even more important.
However, in government hospitals, there is a system to take care of food
needs of the patients but there is no system to take care of their
attendants. This makes the situation awkward since the attendants of
underprivileged patients will go hungry since they won’t be able to work
for their food. This is where Bhojanamrita comes into picture.Patients’ attendants receiving free food under Bhojanamrita programme at a hospital in Hyderabad. |
