Help Sanjay Save Hundreds Of Sadhus In Varanasi From Going Hungry

    Feel free to ask Campaigner for a new update on this Fundraiser.

    Project


    The Holy city of Varanasi is made up of hundreds of temples and sees thousands of devotees offering their prayers every day. Known for its vibrant and rich cultural heritage, Varanasi is a sight to see. However, amidst all the bustle and tourists, the sadhus of Varanasi spend their days in prayer and meditation, lost in devotion on the banks of the Ganges.



    When you look at them, it will be hard to tell all the challenges they face every day. They don’t complain and make do with whatever little they can get - even when they haven’t eaten for days. Sanjay Pathak is determined to change their plight.

    Hundreds Of Sadhus Are Hungry & Helpless


    “When a sadhu is hungry, you can see it in their eyes, but they will never ask for help. Their entire life is dedicated to prayer and meditation and so often they suffer in silence. I can’t help but feel for them when I see them struggling like this.” - Sanjay Pathak, founder, Shivdham Trust




    Sanjay Pathak has fed so many sadhus in Varanasi in the last 7-8 years that he’s fondly called ‘sadhu bhaiya’ by people. A businessman, Sanjay Pathak started feeding the poor hungry sadhus near Assi Ghat and soon started his own organisation - Shivdham Trust. Today, they feed over 400 sadhus every day and have fed almost 10,000 sadhus and poor people until now. He not only feeds them healthy meals but also distributes groceries to help them survive.

    Although Sanjay Pathak has made a significant impact on the lives of sadhus, he wants to continue serving them to the best of his abilities. There are still so many sadhus who need help. However, he can’t do it without you.



    Your Support Can Help Them Survive

    Sanjay Pathak’s dedication towards helping the sadhus is unmatched, and at a time when they’re struggling to afford even a single meal, he wants to give them the security they need. Shivdham Trust feeds sadhus regularly, and without your support, they won’t be able to do it any longer.

    Donate groceries and help Sanjay Pathak ensure that sadhus in Varanasi get fresh and healthy food regularly 


    About Sanjay Pathak: For over 8 years, Sanjay Pathak has been working to give the sadhus and others in need a better and more comfortable life. As of now, he has been feeding 400 hungry sadhus in need. With your help, he can reach out to many more who require support.
