THE BACKGROUND
Food is the most basic requirement for all of us. Getting a square meal should not be a reason for distress for any individual. There are thousands of families for whom getting food is a luxury.
At Ehsaas (we are a Lucknow based NGO) we strongly believe that each city should have one or many food banks that ensure no one needs to beg on the streets for food.
The UP Food Bank is based at Lucknow. The FOOD BANK works as a bridge between the community and the contributor and not just ensures the distribution of ration but also ensures that it reaches the right beneficiaries.
The FOOD BANK acts as a support system to the underprivileged, who struggle to provide their families with the bare minimum. It eliminates hunger and transforms lives.
HOW THE FOOD BANK WORKS
The Food Bank is on a mission to serve the most marginalized sections of the society by making food accessible to them so that they can realize other goals of healthy living, education and safety. We aim to create a support system for those families that struggle every day to make ends meet yet at the end of the day the food that they eat does not provide them the essential nutrition.
THIS IS HOW FOOD CHANGES LIVES

The Food Bank works with communities' to identify such families and support them partially so that they can lead a healthy life and invest in their upliftment. This initiative empowers individuals by providing support in crisis, linking them with government programs and schemes. Each family that we support becomes a Food Bank Card holder. The beneficiaries are identified through civil society partners and community mobilizers who also monitor the families and support them regularly.

ABOUT ME
![](https://fadcdn.s3.amazonaws.com/media/1041/Lead_image_50170.jpg)
My name is Kriti Goenka . I study at Seth Anandram Ram Jaipuria School,Kanpur.
I am running this crowdfunding campaign to help anyone who has been impacted severely by the second wave of COVID. We are all in it together while dealing with such unprecedented times. It is hard to imagine the plight of families who are unable to get even 2 square meals a day. We must be grateful that we have a roof over our heads, food on the table and a comfortable safe place. This is not the case for these people who earn their bread daily and do not have any money for food. Rations are a simple and effective way of giving them access to food and will also eliminate their uncertainty of making ends meet on a day-to-day basis for those impacted and their families. This will help them overcome the trauma of the second wave.
It costs just INR 20 to feed a family per day. So just INR 600 will support them for a month.
We, the more privileged sections of society need to step up to support them. I request all of you to support my campaign so that we can also contribute to their well-being in our own small little way. Let's come together and do our bit to help our fellow countrymen.

How does crowdfunding work?
Crowdfunding in India is a relatively new concept and 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 and 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 and you get small innovative rewards like a shout-out on an FB page or a thank you email from the beneficiaries.
