About:
My name is Divija. I am 13 years old and a Grade 9 student at Chirec International. I am an avid reader and enthusiastic movie watcher with a humanitarian heart.
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected all of us in different ways. Perhaps the most disastrous effect has been on the daily wage earners, migrant labour and the financially poor. Even after the lockdown is lifted, their plight remains the same as jobs will be scarce. They fear starvation more than the virus itself. Try to imagine yourself in their shoes. No roof over your head, no income coming in, and a constant worry of when the next meal will come. Wouldn’t one be absolutely desperate for any kind of aid?
We are the privileged ones and it is our duty to must step up to help them through these difficult times. I request all of you to support my campaign so that we can also ease their hardship in our own small way. This campaign aims to provide meals and bottled water to them across Hyderabad and is done by Akshaya Patra( through their kitchens) in close coordination with the local administration. The least we can do for our nation is to help those who are less privileged than us.
