With an objective of serving the underprivileged, NGO Nizhal Maiyam provided breakfast for a total of 1,195 children and senior citizens from several orphanages.
“The money was collected through donations. The people from the NGO started preparing food at 2 am and finished at 6 am,” said B. Murugan , Managing Trustee , Nizhal Maiyam.
To prevent environment degradation and enable sustainable living, 17 saplings were planted by the students of the orphanage at K.K. Pudur.
