This Dussehra, Help provide nutritious food to poor children in Dehradun

Feed Poor Children

Dussehra is a festival that celebrates the victory of good over evil. It marks the triumph of Lord Rama over Ravana and reminds us that truth and kindness always win. On this day, families prepare sweets, perform puja, and enjoy the festive spirit. But while we celebrate, many children in our city go to sleep on empty stomachs. For them, Dussehra is not about joy, but about hunger.

This year, let’s make Dussehra more meaningful. Along with lighting lamps and performing rituals, let us also feed poor children. A simple meal given with love can change their day, bring a smile to their face, and invite the blessings of Lord Shri Rama into our homes.

1. The Real Meaning of Dussehra

Dussehra is not just a story of victory. It is also a reminder to fight the evils within and around us. Hunger is one of the biggest evils in society today. While some homes are full of sweets, others do not have even a single roti.

Our devotion becomes more powerful when it is joined with compassion. Scriptures say that feeding the hungry, especially children, is one of the greatest acts of worship. This Dussehra, when you share food, you are not only celebrating the victory of good over evil but also helping children experience the true spirit of the festival.

2. Why Food Donation on Dussehra Matters

• Hunger is real: Millions of children sleep hungry every night in India.
• Festivals are about sharing: Celebrations are incomplete if others are left out.
• True worship is compassion: Offering food to a hungry child is like offering bhog to the Goddess herself.

Every roti, every plate of rice, every handful of fruit you share becomes a prayer in action. Food donation on Dussehra is not just about charity — it is about spreading joy, hope, and blessings.

3. Feed the Needy on Dussehra

In 2025, Dussehra will be celebrated on 2nd October (Thursday). While people burn effigies of Ravana to mark the victory of Lord Rama, you too can burn away the sorrow of hunger from the lives of poor children.

• Start your morning with seva: Sponsor meals for children in schools and orphanages.
• During puja and aarti: Offer sweets and fruits to poor families along with your bhog.
• Evening celebration: Support food distribution drives for children living on streets and in slums.

Every act of giving, big or small, makes this day brighter for someone who needs it the most.

Dussehra is about removing negativity and filling our lives with light. What better way to celebrate than by bringing joy to a hungry child?

A child’s smile after receiving food, the relief in their eyes, and the happiness in their family — that is the true victory of good over evil. This blessing is far greater than any material gift.

When you feed a child, you are not just giving food. You are giving hope, health, and happiness. And in return, Lord Rama bless you with peace, prosperity, and harmony in your life.
