Next Feed-The-Needy event is to take place on Sunday, November 22, 2009 at Union Gospel Mission, Fort Worth. Come and join the fun.
On the Mother's Day (10th May, 2009), we celebrated the fun in cooking and feeding homeless people. There were
about 250 guests, who enjoyed the food immensely. All menu items were super-hit.

************************************************
Feed-the-Needy is a well-established heritage program since 1992 where delicious Indian lunch is cooked on the spot and served to the homeless people.
The participants are families who, while wearing their program shirts, become chefs. Tasty recipes, like Italian Chicken, Mixed Vegetables, Vege-Sausage and Rice, are prepared with raw ingredients and lots of goodwill. The chefs then turn into hosts, all standing and serving the folks hot freshly cooked food with salad.

The event is held twice a year, one in mid-Spring, usually on the Mother's day, and then in the Fall. The immediate past event was held in May 2009 at Union Gospel Mission in their new facility. The Gospel residents and street 'residents' all enjoyed the food with multiple rounds. The UGM Leaders always appreciate the team for the excellent treats to the homeless.
We feel proud to be associated with UGM which is an
example of dedication to the human cause.
