2024 AYUDH Meal Packing event May 4th
AYUDH New England helped organize AYUDHians and Satsang members to join a meal packing effort with Feed My Starving Children at the Dayspring Christian Academy in South Attleboro on Saturday, May 4, 2024.
Learning that one in nine people in the world go hungry, the volunteers took part in efforts to make packets containing rice, soy, dried vegetables, and vitamins that will be distributed across the world to provide food for children in need. Together, they packed 22,248 meals in 103 boxes that, in total, can feed 61 children a daily meal for an entire year! Read more about this event
2023 AYUDH initiatives
AYUDH Give: a food and essentials drive
AYUDH New England wrapped up our AYUDH Give projects! We approached this initiative from multiple perspectives and deepened our understanding of the community's needs. Many of these efforts will continue beyond AYUDH Give.
- We joined food rescue efforts to bring bread donations from our local Whole Foods to Rosie's Place, a women's shelter in Boston. In just one trip, we collected and donated 24 loaves of bread!
- We volunteered at the Margaret Fuller House food pantry. Volunteering allowed us to see how our donations were distributed and used to help members of the community. Over two days we helped serve approximately 40 people.
- We organized a food and essentials drive at the New England Satsang. Thanks to the generosity of our satsang members, we collected 43 bags of beans/rice, 41 boxes of pasta, 49 cans of soup, 54 packs of ramen noodles, 96 rolls of toilet paper, 45 rolls of paper towels and more.
