Support Guru Nanak's Community Kitchen
Please Support Food Relief for Children, Families & Seniors
May this find you well and your spirit filled with vitality during this time! As you may know our main mission here at Guru Ram Das Ashram has been of service. As inspired by the tradition and lineage of the Sikh Gurus, our dream is to serve our communities in a way that provides comfort, security and nourishment. We at Guru Ram Das Ashram had the great privilege of serving in this way for almost 50 years, whether that is through our yoga and meditation teachings or our recently launched charitable non-profit organization Sikh Dharma Social Services, Inc. of which Guru Nanak's Community Kitchen food relief program is a part.
We have provided groceries for those in need in the surrounding local communities in Massachusetts and Rhode Island. In just the first 2 years of operation, our Food Relief Program has already provided enough natural groceries (organic and GMO free whenever possible) and fresh produce from our organically principled garden to provide over 40,000 meals to those in need.
The remodeling of our community kitchen are ready to move into Phase 2, which includes the addition of a new wing with bathrooms and a cozy gathering space. This will keep the kitchen safe for food preparation, allow easy access to the bathrooms from both yoga classrooms, and provide a space for comradery after classes and for volunteers who are working in the kitchen. Over time, this addition will make it easier for us to bring warm, wholesome meals to food insecure members of the larger community.
These projects are manifesting because of caring people like you.
Our goal for this year is to raise $100,000. We hope that you can continue to support in any way possible for you. Please consider having your gift matched by your employer – or tell a friend about the important work we are doing.
