CHARITABLE
TOGETHER IS BETTER
With support from members, KKS has been doing many charitable activities for the last so many years. KKS strongly believes in giving back to society, which has given all of us a lot.
KKS Helps Homeless – a small step towards building a more compassionate and inclusive society
As part of Charitable Activities, KKS provided a premium wheelchair and a big vessel with a lid (worth 15k) for cooking 45 kgs of food (weighing 70kgs) to the AIR Humanitarian Homes, Bannerghatta, Bangalore, today. KKS provided two wheelchairs, 100 blankets, and 15 walking sticks to AIR Humanitarian Homes last year.
Helping the homeless is indeed a humbling experience. Engaging in such activities provides tangible support to those in need and also deepens empathy and understanding towards humanity. It underscores the importance of community, compassion, and the realization that small acts of kindness can make a significant difference in someone’s life. Through these experiences, we often find that we gain as much as we give, fostering a deeper connection to our shared humanity.
As per the plan, a charity event was organized today to support homeless individuals in our society, especially in Bangalore. A team of 5 EC members of KKS (Mr. Rajani Kant Srivastava, Mr. Rajiv Saxena, Mrs. Baljit Saxena, Mrs. Anupam Saxena, and the undersigned) visited the AIR Humanitarian Homes, Bannerghatta, Bangalore, donated the items mentioned above, and spent time with the homeless, listening to their stories, and providing emotional support.
The EC team addressed a gathering of more than 400+ homeless individuals who are being taken care of by the efficient team including Mr. Praveen R, Chief of Service, Ms. Merry, and Head Cook of AIR Humanitarian Homes, offering them immediate relief and fostering a sense of family and care. KKS salutes them for doing noble work with sincerity and dedication.
This activity was a small step towards addressing the larger issue of homelessness, aiming to bring dignity, hope, and a sense of belonging to those in need. KKS will make this a regular initiative, with the next event focusing on providing clothes.
