Homelessness and hunger remain pressing issues in India, with millions of individuals struggling to survive without access to basic necessities. Among them are the homeless, street children, and destitute elderly, whose daily lives are marked by challenges most of us cannot imagine. At Help Foundation, we are committed to making a tangible difference by addressing one of the most immediate needs of these vulnerable populations—access to nutritious food.
Understanding the Scope of the Problem
India is home to approximately 1.77 million homeless individuals, a population affected by factors such as poverty, unemployment, domestic violence, and natural disasters. For those living on the streets, survival is a daily battle against hunger, illness, and exploitation.
The situation is even more heart-wrenching for street children, whose numbers are estimated at 20 million nationwide. Many of these children are orphans or runaways, fleeing abuse, neglect, or poverty. Forced to work in dangerous environments or turn to illegal activities, they are at constant risk of exploitation, trafficking, and violence.
Amid these challenges, basic necessities like food, clean water, and shelter remain inaccessible luxuries for millions.
To address this urgent issue, Help Foundation runs a Feeding Homeless program, focusing on providing freshly prepared nutritious meals to the homeless and street children in the Kurnool District of Andhra Pradesh. Our program operates on the deeply rooted principle of annadanam—the act of donating food as an offering of kindness and humanity.
Each meal, priced at just INR 50, includes: Freshly cooked rice, Dal, Vegetable curry, Fresh fruits like apples and bananas
This simple but wholesome meal helps alleviate hunger, boost energy levels, and improve the overall health of those in need.
The Impact of Your Support
With the generosity of donors, we have already reached over 1,750 families, positively impacting 2,800 lives across Kurnool. However, the need is vast, and we cannot do it alone.
**Here’s how your contribution can make a difference:
