Joy of Giving Week

Giving is a noble act for all the citizens living on the globe, but for Indians, it is more then a tradition. We have a habit of taking out part for cows & dogs before we take our own meal. We welcome our guests as Gods & we make sure they do not go empty stomach & empty hearted from our home.
Good news is that every years since 2009, starting from Gandhiji’s birthday, a Joy of Giving Week is celebrated nationally wherein many institutions, NGOs & individuals try to reach the unreached by contributing anything they have like time, expertise, cash or kind as per their likings. The quantity does not matter, what matters is that it reaches to those who need it. Be it a smile to a sad face or a meal in its suitable space.
