With a lofty goal to end hunger in the Mill Woods neighbourhood of Edmonton, they have been raising funds to provide food to people in need during this period of Coronavirus pandemic.
Organizers told Diversity Magazine that 3,600 meals have already been handed out by the Edmonton nonprofit, Green Scholars of Alberta and still going daily at no cost.
They added that with just a text message to 780.966.3121 before 4PM, you are good to pickup your food at Dil-E-Punjab restaurant on 1531 Mill Woods Road, Mill Woods, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
On May 24, 2020, founders and organizers; Varinder Bhullar, Jagdeep Bassi, and Anuvir Bhullar, decided to compensate Edmontonians for missing out on all major celebrations by giving out 5,000 meals to those in need at the parking lot of Dil-E-Punjab restaurant.
“…I got a sense that people were sleeping hungry…,” Varinder Bhullar shared with Diversity Magazine in a video interview.
The organization will continue to give out free food till the end of the pandemic, Varinder Bhullar added in the video interview below.
