Youth teams from VT Seva Boston collected 120 bags of food to donate to Merrimack Valley food bank in Nashua, NH in March 2014. Similarly youth from other VT Seva branches across USA have donated hundreds of pounds of food to their local charities.
With the inspiration of VT Seva founder HH Sri Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji’s call to serve the underprivileged, VT Seva has successfully organized its annual holiday food drive at various locations in the United States.
VT Seva young volunteers motivated their local communities to participate in the food drive and everything that was collected was delivered to the local shelter homes and food pantries/banks. We are very proud of the VT Seva volunteers and the local communities who contributed both their time and resources to make this noble cause a successful event.
The goal was to raise about 1000 pounds of food. Because of active participation from the VT Seva volunteers, we raised more than 2000 pounds.
