Founder President of Maha NGO Federation, Shri Shekhar Mundada, celebrated a heartwarming and unique Raksha Bandhan today, 31st August 2023, under the auspices of Manthan Foundation. These 90 women have also been provided with nutritional food kits every month throughout the year. The occasion was not only intended to celebrate the festival, but also to affirm solidarity and support for these women who are facing unique social challenges.
During the Raksha Bandhan event, Shri. Mundada expressed a strong sense of privilege and joy at being able to share this momentous occasion with these courageous women. He acknowledged the strength and resilience they have shown in handling the complexities of their situation. By following the tradition of tying “Rakhi”, a traditional symbol of protection and love between brothers and sisters, the organization’s commitment to provide them not only material assistance but also emotional support and a sense of belonging underlined.
This initiative exemplified the core values of Maha NGO Federation by showcasing its dedication to holistic well-being and empowerment.
Through its programmes, Maha NGO Federation has not only given importance to vital nutrition but has also fostered a sense of togetherness among those who face social stigma.
Mr. Mundada’s presence and words during the Raksha Bandhan programme were a heartwarming reminder that the true essence of philanthropy lies in creating meaningful connections and uplifting the spirits of the needy.
Mrs. Payal Majumdar, who shed light on the profound meaning behind Raksha Bandhan, also expressed her thoughts. The programme was a testament to this. The festival is not just about celebrating the bond between a brother and a sister but also about establishing a strong and lasting bond between two women. The essence of the programme, which emphasized on the unity being cultivated among the women present, was revealed.
