This is being carried out under the guidance of Pujya Bhaishri.

From 27^th March 2020 to 28^th March 2020, the families of labourers were provided accommodation around the Sandipani campus, provided food kits and travel arrangements to return to their villages. Nearly 100 labourers were sent home with food packets and water.

On 1 April and 2 April 2020, Sandipani Rishikumars went to the slum areas of Porbandar and distributed food kits to the families of labourers.

On 5^th April 2020, further food distribution was carried out at Madhavpur.

Thereafter, on 7^th April 2020, 100 food kits were distributed by the Rishikumars within the tribal villages in the forest areas of Ranavav.

The food kits contained wheat flour, rice, grains, spices, potatoes, onions weighing 25 kgs sufficient to last at least 10 days for the families of less able in all these areas.

Moreover, Pujya Bhaishri and the Rishikumars in their homes, performed an anushthan of the recitation of a thousand Chandi path in the first nine days of Chaitra Navratri, for the global health of the entire mankind. During this time, Pujya Bhaishri encouraged all to either recite Shri Ram Charit Manas or join other Rishikumars in the recitation of 100,000 Shri Hanuman Chalisa.
