Indian Swami and founder of the Hare Krishna movement, had visited a village where he saw a group of village children fighting with street dogs over scraps of food.

This sight left him amazed and anguished. So he ordered his disciples to serve food to the needy people and said: “No one within ten miles of a temple should go hungry… I want you to begin serving food immediately.” Obeying his plea, members of ISKCON and volunteers around the globe started the Food Donation Programs aiming to serve the less-privileged individuals. Only a compassionate soul like you can understand the value of Anna-Daan Seva.
