Vitamin D Distribution at FFLV
By Paridhi Sethi | Project Leader

As the saying goes, prevention is better than cure. At this time, Food for Life Vrindavan is distributing vitamin D3 to thousands of needy families in Vrindavan.
It will help them to boost their immunity and can also help to reduce the mortality rate in elderly people by 20%.
Although, FFLV is not a hospital or a medical facility, yet we are determined to help our community fight the Covid pandemic.
Many thanks to Dr. Ludwig Manfred Jacob and Dr. Jacob's Medical GmbH for sending these highly important Vitamin D3 bottles all the way from Germany to Vrindavan, India.
The distribution of Vitamin D3 will continue in batches of 50 families on a daily basis. Along with the Vitamin D3 distribution we have also been distributing monthly food ration and sanitizers and masks to the community.
Thank You for your support.

Since 1998, every year FFLV has distributed around 5000 gift bags to the students of Sandipani Muni School, FFLV and many poor children of Vrindavan, India. But this year, due to Covid-19, our New Year Gift Festival (NYGF) 2021 was particularly aimed at providing gift bags to children at our Village Classes.
FFLV celebrated the gift-giving in the first week of January 2021, in which we have delivered more than 800 gift bags to all the students and teachers at Village Classes in more than 20 locations.
What was in the bag? -
Each gift pack was full of necessities: Gachak (peanuts and jaggery sweet), cookies packets, toys, salty snacks, toothbrush, toothpaste, hair comb, hair-oil, shampoo, candies, bath-soap, chocolate, stationery, face cream, and other daily essentials items.
Thanks to all the donors who have made the generous donation. It was a blessing that even with no hope to celebrate this festival due to covid, we were still able to see some amazing smiles from all those receiving these gifts of love and care.

A New Way of Schooling
By Ashwani Chaudhary | Project Leader

The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected the primary education of children since the Government shutdown and due to the implementation of safety measures, schools have not reopened. As an alternative, FFLV has come up with an idea of home schools for primary grade FFLV students, for whom online classes would have been too difficult if not impossible. Not only can we provide these students with the essential learning but also reconnect with them and know they are safe and well.
Currently, FFLV home classes are running in 8 different locations at nearby villages, conducted by FFLV senior grade students playing a role as teachers and having an opportunity to develop their teaching skills and earning some money as well.
We have more than 250 students from 1st to 5th grade and more than 25 “teachers". Many more teaching locations will be organized in the coming weeks. Each teacher is being allotted a group of 8-9 students to teach and monitor by following all the precautionary measures to prevent the spread of Covid19. Classes are held 6 days a week for a time period of around 3 hours a day. FFLV is providing each and every possible facility to students such as stationery material, masks, sanitizers, blackboards, mats, cookies for breakfast, etc.
Please keep supporting these lovely children and their teachers too!
