My dadu and dadi have been the ones spoiling me rotten and loving me unconditionally ever since I was born and thus I have a natural inclination towards the elderly!
Little Sisters Of The Poor is an old age home that was built as the first-of-its-kind in eastern India. They house and give shelter to senior citizens who have nowhere to go or have been left abandoned. I absolutely love visiting this place because the love here will touch you.
What you can do: If you feel for the many homeless elderly people around the city, you have to get in touch with the home and try getting a spot as a volunteer. If you’re in college or school, get your social service club to arrange for a weekly project there. You have to follow the house rules of course. Donatingis an option, ask the sisters what would be the perfect gift for them for Diwali!
