UMD Grocery help for students on May 23 Wknd By VHPA, HSC and DesiUMD

Namaskaram,

  This last weekend, we helped about 33 students of UMD , College Park with groceries that will last for next 15 days. Each grocery bag included rice, dal, carrots, Potatoes, small spinach bag , tomato, onions, few chillies, 5 tea sachets and lime and ginger for immunity. Whoever asked for we also gave a few milk bottle and yogurt bottles on need basis for bone health. Although we cannot help them with rental and other expenses which they paid thru campus jobs, we resolved to help atleast their groceries.

  These students lost their campus jobs due to lockdown and are in desperate need for help . So Whenever the VHPA van with Indian flag comes, they are very happy and feel patriotic with India India slogans. Attached a small video of Vande Mataram also. 

   Attached are pics and a video of our interaction with the UMD students in College Park.
