STEPUP | DEVANSH KHANDELWAL'S CAMPAIGN TO PROVIDE COOKED MEALS TO HEALTHCARE WORKERS IN MUMBAI AND ENCOURAGE FITNESS.
Mumbai, Maharashtra, India
CAMPAIGN TEAM
At the frontlines of the fight against COVID-19, hundreds of healthcare attendants put their lives at risk every day to save infected patients and help out in this global health crisis. These unsung heroes are the sweepers, ward boys and other healthcare attendants who spend all day at hospitals leaving their families at home and exposing themselves through direct constant contact with COVID-19 patients. Let’s take a small step to have a lasting impact on our community.
My name is DEVANSH KHANDELWAL.
I am a part of a group of high school students all across the city, with a desire to help and make a difference during these unprecedented challenging times. The healthcare attendants, including sweepers, ward boys and assistants at COVID hospitals such as St George hospital and JJ hospital, come from underprivileged backgrounds and live paycheck to paycheck. They are especially vulnerable to the virus and we can support them by ensuring they get to eat nutritious meals every day.
We are organising an event Stepathon to raise funds and provide daily food meals to them so that they can sustain their basic nutritious requirements. While helping feed the frontline healthcare workers, we also want to promote the importance of being fit and healthy especially during this lockdown period when staying active is difficult. Read on for more information.
Rotary Club of Mumbai Nariman Point was chartered on 1st May 2002. It is one of the youngest clubs in Mumbai in terms of average age and in consonance thereof boasts of a young and enthusiastic conglomeration of Rotarians.
The Club has grown many folds and today has a membership of 65 individuals from different walks of life; Financial Advisors, Analysts, Advocates, Insurers, Doctors, entrepreneurs, etc. Due to the age advantage, we have a very good camaraderie. Also, the dynamism motivates us to embark on larger projects year after year. We live by our motto “Service Over Self”.

Crowdfunding in India is a relatively new concept & is growing very quickly.
It’s a concept that allows a large number of funders (like you) to fund an idea or a cause or event by giving small amounts of money online. Fueladream.com is a crowdfunding platform in India that allows for such pooling of funds. You can fund innovations & ideas on FuelADream and be the first to get these products or make them come true. You can also do a good turn by funding charities and causes through crowdfunding. When you fund a charity it’s more like a donation & you get small innovative rewards like a shout-out on an FB page or a thank you email from the beneficiaries.
