ISKCON Food Relief Foundation branded as Annamrita, a not-for-profit, non-religious, non-sectarian public charitable organization, has earned appreciation from District Red Cross Society for extending the selfless humanitarian and generous support to the flood victims of Basantpur Village, Faridabad.
The organization pro-actively reached out to the state government and offered unsolicited aid to the 500 villagers who were deeply affected by such a critical and uncontrollable situation. The efficient team of Annamrita not only managed to cook the healthy and sumptuous Khichdi meal for the victims but also systematically delivered it to government officials in an extremely short span of time.
"We are extremely glad to partner with the District Red Cross Society for such a noble cause. We have consistently tried to cater to communities in the best manner possible. I hope this initiative will inspire others to walk on a similar path," said Vice - Chairman, North India, Annamrita, Dhananjaya Krishna Das.
"We really appreciate this selfless and humanitarian approach of Annamrita. The organization has set an exemplary standard when it comes to delivering whole-heartedly towards a humble cause for the betterment of the people in need. We look forward to serving the society via more such partnerships in the future," said Secretary, District Red Cross Society, Faridabad.
As International societies, ISCKON and Red Cross Society have always been at the forefront and have partnered together for various humanitarian efforts worldwide; making their association quiet apt for extending support towards the Faridabad flood victims.
