Diya India Foundation, with the generous support of Vitol Foundation, organized a heartfelt SEVA initiative at Geeta Mandir. We went for its monthly visit to an old age home in New Rajinder Nagar.
Old age is a time when we need love and care from our loved ones. However, all over the world some old age people are put in homes for the aged and are conveniently forgotten by their children.
As we stepped into the old age home the residents greeted us with smile. After meeting them Diya India volunteers distributed chairs, vegetables and daily need items.
We had a interactive session, where we herd them as they poured their hearts out to us. One inmate told us that her granddaughter is setting married and she is not invited. Tears welled up in her eyes.
