My name is Rida khan. I am a grade 9 student at Bombay Scottish mahim.

As the world goes to hell in a handbasket, everyone is taking it a little differently. There are people who are anxious and fearful while there are also people who are victims of ceased business and have lost their livelihood which comes with its sequela of hunger, displacement, insolvency and destitution. Like many others, I was also moved by the plight of these people and was hounded by the question, “what can I do?” Earlier I had worked with NGOs such as Choti si Asha and Salaam Bombay to help feed the hungry during the difficult times of Covid 19. Working with them made me realise all that I can do to help those who are not as privileged as me. Crowdfunding is an amazing opportunity that helps us easily reach out to people who want to help make a difference in the world. Earlier this year I had crowdfunded to help a 10 year old boy with his operation to overcome a congenital heart disease.
Hence when I came know about the spiffing initiative of Rotary, Mumbai, I aimed to help as many people as possible. Rotary’s mission is to distribute meals every day and feed those who are hungry. I request all of you to support my campaign so we can support as many families as possible and help them get through these hard times, so that nobody sleeps hungry in Mumbai.
