GTO recently shared this with other enthusiasts.
Let's go out and make the long weekend special for those less privileged than us! Huge shoutout to BHPian pcpranav for taking the lead on this, and showing us the way. Some of Pranav's earlier threads - charitable drive to villages, Mokhada drive for a cause & Back to Jawhar.
The plan is simple:
What you can carry along to donate:
No pressure, whatever you are comfortable with. Every little bit counts.
Pranav suggests stuff that’s easy to transport such as:
Ensure the packets are sealed properly for hygiene, and so as not to attract rats / insects. I'm gonna move the stuff to the car only in the wee hours of the morning, and place them in cardboard / plastic boxes.
Anything else that you want to give from your heart.
Budget = Could be anything. If you are comfortable with 1000 bucks worth of stuff, that's perfectly fine. 10000 bucks? That's alright too. There is no minimum or maximum here = your being there for the drive is more than enough. Even if you get just 5 kg of rice (<500 rupees), it will help a small family for 15+ days. Remember, these are people that go to sleep hungry at night and hence, every packet of food will bring a smile to someone's face.Come on, join in on the fun. Will be a fun drive and more importantly, it will be a heartwarming experience. Spare a Sunday morning for the underprivileged, spare a Sunday morning for a lovely drive with fellow BHPians.
Meeting Points on Sunday, 14th August:
