Feed the poor and needy in Goa

Dear Friend,

El Shaddai is committed to addressing hunger and food insecurity among the most vulnerable members of society, including homeless individuals, elderly people, persons with disabilities, orphaned children, abandoned women, patients, and impoverished families living in both rural and urban communities.

Many of the people we serve face extreme poverty and uncertainty. Without a stable source of income or family support, they often struggle to access necessities, including nutritious meals. A significant number of elderly individuals, people with disabilities, and orphaned families live in difficult conditions and are unable to meet their daily nutritional needs. For many, sleeping on an empty stomach has become a harsh reality.

Through this project, El Shaddai provides daily food assistance to those most in need. Our outreach includes poor families, orphaned children, senior citizens, persons with disabilities, divorced and abandoned women, and individuals experiencing homelessness. By ensuring access to regular meals, we help reduce hunger, improve health and well-being, and restore dignity to vulnerable people.

One of the greatest challenges faced by these communities is the lack of access to adequate support systems and sustainable sources of income. Many are unable to work due to age, disability, illness, or social circumstances. As a result, they remain highly vulnerable to food insecurity and malnutrition.

The project contributes to the goal of Zero Hunger by providing nutritious food and essential support to those who need it most. Every meal distributed represents more than nourishment; it brings hope, comfort, and reassurance that someone cares. The joy and gratitude expressed by beneficiaries remind us of the profound impact that consistent food assistance can have on their lives.

Through ongoing food distribution efforts, El Shaddai is helping to reduce hunger, improve nutrition, promote health, and lessen inequalities within underserved communities. Our holistic approach seeks not only to meet immediate needs but also to strengthen resilience and create opportunities for a healthier and more dignified future.

We invite supporters and donors to partner with us in this mission. Together, we can ensure that vulnerable individuals and families have access to nutritious meals and the opportunity to live with dignity and hope.

With Gratitude

El Shaddai family!

Dear friend!

We extend our heartfelt gratitude for your generosity and compassion. For more than 27 years, El Shaddai has been doing far more than teaching children to read and write. We have been feeding them, day after day, year after year, because we know one simple truth: a hungry child cannot learn. Our children come to school hungry for knowledge, but very often, they simply come hungry.

In the slums of Goa and its surrounding communities, food at home is never a guarantee. Many children arrive at school having eaten nothing since the day before. Hunger weakens bodies, clouds concentration, and quietly robs children of their potential. At El Shaddai, we refuse to let hunger decide a child’s and a woman’s future. That is why, for a quarter of a century, El Shaddai has provided hundreds of thousands of nutritious meals to the children and women in Goa.

Today, every child and woman at our centre, shelter, home and street receives freshly cooked meals a day. No child or woman is turned away. The result is visible everywhere you look: children who are strong, healthy, energetic, and ready to learn. A strong woman is ready to work. Hunger does not sit in our centres, shelters, slums and streets. This program ensures that families who struggle with food insecurity are provided with proper food. Today, more than 1000 people are fed every school day.

Each meal you have helped provide is more than just food; it is comfort, hope, and a reminder to these families that they are not alone. However, the need remains overwhelming, and many more families are still waiting for support.

We kindly ask you to continue standing with us, so we can keep these lifelines going and reach even more people in the days ahead.

With Gratitude!

El Shaddai family!
