Community Kitchen Kaleesuwari partnered with various NGOs in the city and immediately opened a large kitchen in the Chennai factory to feed people in and around the factory as well as people who are affected by corona across the city.
We cooked food for 1500 people every day lunch and dinner right since April 1st and ramped up to 25000 when it was extended further in the month of May to another 1000 people. During this period, we prepared and distributed over 1.5 lakh food packets to raise the spirits of those who need a helping hand during these tenuous times.

While the GHs were equipped to handle the first-line responders in villages are ill-equipped. Request for Covid test Centre in Palani was brought the PHC in Thalaiyam.
With the help the Kaleesuwari Covid test centre over 350 people were tested. COVID Ambulance to transport and to provide emergency support to patients infected by COVID requires a separate ambulance.
It ensures the safety and security of the patients and support staffs. Kaleesuwari donated fully functional ambulance to CSI Kalyani Hospital Chennai to exclusively manage Covid patient.
