Ensuring food security for our most vulnerable community members is a top priority for the Shymal Seal Foundation. Following our initial financial outreach, we realized that sustainable, ongoing support is crucial for elders living without a safety net.
We are proud to officially launch the Senior Citizen Monthly Food Aid Programme (2026-2027).
Yesterday, on May 21st, our team delivered our first comprehensive monthly grocery kit to Mr. Swapan Bhowmick at his residence in Pandu, Guwahati. To ensure his nutritional needs are met for the coming weeks, the Foundation provided a full spectrum of daily essentials, including:
- Staples: 5 Kg Sona Shakti Rice, Moong Dal (500g), and Masoor Dal (500g).
- Cooking Essentials: 1 Liter Fortune Kachi Ghani Mustard Oil and 1 Kg Tata Salt.
- Spices: Turmeric, Cumin, Chilli Powder, Whole Dry Chillies, and Panch Phoran.
- Dry Snacks: Packets of biscuits for daily tea.
This is not a one-time initiative. The Foundation has committed to providing this exact food aid package to Mr. Bhowmick every single month. By removing the daily anxiety of securing basic groceries, we hope to provide him with dignity, comfort, and peace of mind.
Our Monthly Food Aid Programme relies on the generosity of our community. If you would like to sponsor a senior citizen’s monthly groceries, please visit our Contact page to partner with us.
