For the last 4-5 years, Jagannath Food For Life has been helping the needy with its unique initiative. As Ludhiana is an industrial hub, the number of migrant labours and daily wage workers is immense. For them and for all other people, who can’t afford healthy food, Jagannath Food For Life has worked really hard.

You must be thinking about how all the food reaches booths in different parts of the city. How does Jagannath Food For Life cook food for almost 3,000 people every day? Well, for that, there is a team of volunteers who are noble enough to give time and effort for this noble cause.
In Hasanpur village Ludhiana, there is Jagannath Food For Life’s Mega Kitchen. All the food is prepared here using hi-tech machinery and a great team of volunteers.
The motive is to serve “Satvic” food to needy people. Therefore, no garlic and onion are used in all the food that the team prepares. Other than that, the prepared food is first served to Lord Jagannath. As a form of Prasad, the food is packed in thalis. After that, the Bhojan Thalis are loaded into vans and trucks and then they reach 12 different booths in major areas of the city.

Mr Naveen Bhatia shares his story and tells that one of his friends from Banaras inspired him to take the initiative. “One of my friends was serving food to the needy people in Banaras. He was also doing the same. The working model was the same. The idea was to help the needy and provide them with food at a nominal price. That is when I decided to do the same in Ludhiana as well.”
Mr Satish Kumar Gupta says that his motive was to donate to a noble cause. “With God’s grace, we got support from several industrialists of Ludhiana and started with this initiative. Since 2017, we have been helping people who need food but cannot afford it,” he adds.
