Strike The Hunger

Reaching Those Who Need Food and Care the Most

Strike The Hunger is an initiative of Kalvi Kattanam Foundation focused on providing nutritious, freshly prepared food to elderly people who are unable to move or care for themselves.

Our support goes beyond simply providing a meal. We take time to meet and interact with the elderly, listen to their experiences, and understand the challenges they face. Through these interactions, we have come across many deeply moving stories of elderly people who have been left without adequate family support or care.

We started the initiative by distributing 25 food parcels and gradually increased the distribution to up to 50 parcels, based on the needs of the people we reached. Each parcel contains steamed, hot, freshly packed food and costs approximately ₹40 per meal.

Our regular plan is to provide around 30 meals at a time, while our long-term goal is to reach many more people who struggle to access a basic, nourishing meal.

Our Goal :

Feed More. Care More. Reach More.

With the continued support of donors and well-wishers, we hope to expand Strike The Hunger and ensure that more elderly people receive not only a warm meal, but also care, compassion, and human connection.
