Project 42: 139 meals Veg Pulav, 4 volunteers, 30 hours

Outside the COVID-19 hospital in Beed, Maharashtra, the spirit of kindness once again came alive through Project 42 of the Life is All Positive Kitchen. This project was not just about food—it was about offering comfort, dignity, and hope to people who needed it the most.

With immense love, 139 healthy meals were prepared by Shubham and Apeksha, supported wholeheartedly by the family of Shubham Sasane. Alongside them, four dedicated volunteers poured in their energy, working tirelessly for 30 hours to ensure that every meal carried not only nutrition but also warmth from the heart. This act of compassion was made possible by the generosity of Deek Parassini, whose support turned this vision into reality.
As the food distribution began outside the hospital, the air was filled with a quiet sense of gratitude. People came forward, some weary, some anxious, yet each one left with a meal in hand and a smile on their face. The volunteers made sure that every packet was passed on with kindness and respect, reminding everyone that they were not forgotten.

What unfolded that day was far greater than a food drive. The meals may have nourished bodies, but the love with which they were served nourished hearts. Each act of giving became a message of hope—that even in the toughest times, humanity shines brightest when we choose to care.

Project 42 reminded us that we don’t always need grand gestures to make a difference. Sometimes, it is the simple act of serving food with love outside a hospital that brings light into someone’s darkest day. Togetherness, compassion, and kindness have the power to heal more than we can ever imagine. And when we come together with this spirit, we create ripples of positivity that reach far beyond what our eyes can see.
