IANH Covid-19 Fundraiser

The Covid-19 crisis is far from over. There is no doubt that there are many people in the US who are suffering from the fall-out of this crisis. This is evident from the long lines at food banks across the country. Food from the food banks and soup kitchens is a god-send for the families of people who have lost their jobs. IANH would like to raise funds for the following organizations to help alleviate the current suffering.

1. Nashua Soup Kitchen: NSK is serving food and produce to those in need. 

2. Manchester Soup Kitchen: MSK and Families in Transition have created an Emergency Relief Fund and have requested donations

3. Derry Soup Kitchen: DSK will start offering to-go meals from April 21.

4. NH Food Bank: Food banks play an important role during the crisis by distributing food to families in need through various agencies in the state. Currently, the National Guards is working with NH Food Bank to support its operations.

5. Feeding America: This is the parent organization that operates all food banks. Feeding America can channel the funds to states where the need is the greatest. According to Feeding America, every dollar donated to Feeding America helps provide “at least ten meals to children and families in need (www.feedingamerica.org)”. 

6. North South Foundation: NSF has launched a major effort to raise funds to help with the crisis. Given that we have collaborated with them in conducting the Education Bees for the last twenty years, we would like to support their fundraising efforts.

This crisis is unprecedented. It has been called the “the biggest global crisis since World War II”. Please support our fund raising effort by generously donating to the cause by using one of the options below.

IANH plans to serve Sonshine soup kitchen at Derry, NH

Serving and supporting the community via soup kitchens has always been a heartfelt experience and the best way to engage with our local community and giving back to community.

For decades, India Association of NH (IANH) has been serving and supporting Nashua and Manchester soup kitchens that benefit thousands of needy people in these areas. IANH also has been participating in their annual fund raisers and been sponsoring these events every year for last many years.

This year, we have decided to undertake a new geographical area in New Hampshire to expand our community service via participating at Derry soup kitchen also known as Sonshine soup kitchen. Sonshine soup kitchen has been serving the local community at Derry, NH since 1989 serving meals, donating food and clothes to the needy (www.sonshinesoupkitchen.org). This will be a great opportunity for our youth group as well to expand their community reach program.

We have decided to start our engagement with the Derry soup kitchen by sponsoring a meal every month (so total of 12 meals a year). The cost for sponsorship for each meal will be 100 dollars, so we are looking for a total sum of 1200 dollars for the whole year. The soup kitchen will take care of cooking and serving the meals.

We are looking to our IANH community to come forward with meal sponsorship at Derry soup kitchen and be a part of this new initiative that IANH has undertaken. They can sponsor a meal ($100 per meal) or choose to sponsor multiple meals. If you are willing to sponsor one or more meals, please register yourself via the registration link provided below.
