Introduction

In Indian culture, the spirit of ANNAAPOORNA has always being there, because there is a special Goddess ‘ANNAPOORNA’, whose work is to ensure and bless everyone with sufficient food, so that no one sleeps hungry.

We all can be ‘ANNAPOORNA’s, if we stop wasting food and start giving a meal to the hungry.
So how about being Prithvi’s ANNAPOORNA- A FOOD SAVER Cum FOOD PROVIDER, no matter your age, gender, occupation, region or religion or income.
So, what are you thinking?

IT START FROM YOU & YOUR HOME

Positive green actions to reduce food wastage begin with YOU and your own actions at home and then extend our influence to others in our community and beyond – such as -

When can an Individual or an Institution start a Prithvi’s Annapoorna Kosh??

It can be started anytime, anywhere by anyone, but especially when you waste food (includes all categories of food- raw, cooked, processed, cereals, spices) at home, in office, at social gatherings, in train, or planes or car, or just anywhere, for any reason, remember to resolve to contribute a handful of grain (rice or dal) in ‘Prithvi’s ANNAPOORNA KOSH’ and be a part of ‘Prithvi’s ANNAPOORNA RASOI’.

How can I start ‘Prithvi ANNAPOORNA KOSH’ ??

  • First, as an individual and member of your family, you can start it at your home.

  • If you are part of an institute/ a school/ or a social club or a company

 

Six simple steps to start  ‘Prithvi’s ANNPOORNA KOSH’ both in your Home/School/Institution.

  1. Motivate one and all to minimize food wastage at home or in the organization.

  2. Float a mail/post a circular/ pin it onboard/share in a meeting-the idea of donating a handful of grain, on two Saturdays of every month.

  3. Once you are ready, write to us ***expressing your interest and have the honor to become our ‘Annapoorna Ambassador’ & take your **CLOTH BAGs from us.

  4. Now keep these two Cloth Bags or Container (Prithvi’s ANNAPOORNA KOSH), in the kitchen at home or at the reception or Main gate, to collect the grains-one for Rice & one for Dal.

  5. Call us on the 25th of every month to inform us that your monthly collection is ready.

  6. On 26th of every month, send us the grains collected in that month by your institute or inform us if you are able to identify poor, needy, hungry children under 8 years or old, disabled, or abandoned people in your own area, where you would like us to organize ‘Annapoorna Rasoi’ and provide a meal to these people.

Join and support us to serve hot, nutritious Khichdi prepared from your collection at ‘Prithvi’s ANNAPOORNA RASOI’, either in your area or

in the areas identified by us.

Ensure that everyone contributes at least a handful of rice and dal

at least twice a month.
