This post is about a food contribution drive me and my family participated in. The food was given to labourers during the struggles of COVID.

As COVID struck several people lost their jobs and had financial struggles. While those who had well-paying jobs could survive, others, such as construction workers and labourers struggled the most. This was the time to provide support in our community and help each other out. Hence me and my family decided to cook 60 hot packed meals to contribute towards a good cause. 50 of the meals were given to a person called Ridz uncle who gave them forward to people in need. Me and my sister distributed the rest in and around our residential area.

The meal we cooked consisted of Jeera Rice, Chole, Salad (Cucumbers and Carrots) and 1 cupcake each. I felt a sense of satisfaction while in the kitchen as I got the opportunity to pay back for everything our society has done for us.

The end result was magnificent. Seeing all the 60 packed meals together lightened up the mood. Further, when we saw joy and a smile on the hard working labourers, taxi drivers or security guards, it brought a great sense of thankfulness and appreciation towards them.
Do see the video with the recipe of everything we made and our experience throughout this process.
