For the past three years, the Ellai Mahaliamman Dharmalaya Foundation has been providing food to the poor and needy living in the area and to those on the Palakkad road. Maha Annathanam had been suspended for a few months due to the lockdown and the same has now resumed. The Veda Seela Foundation of Kerala has joined hands with Anna Shethra to provide annathanam throughout the year.
