During the blessed month of Ramadan, the Arshad Salman Foundation organized a Ramadan Ration Drive to support families in need by providing essential food kits to help them observe the holy month with dignity and peace of mind. Each ration kit included staple items such as rice, flour, cooking oil, sugar, dates, and other Sehri and Iftar essentials, ensuring families could meet their daily nutritional needs without added hardship. Through this initiative, families across Channapatna, Bangalore, and Tumkur received timely support during a period that emphasizes faith, patience, and generosity. For many households, this assistance eased the burden of food insecurity and allowed them to focus on prayer, reflection, and spending meaningful time together.

More than a distribution of food, the drive was a gesture of solidarity and compassion. It reflected our belief that no family should face hunger—especially during the month of giving. By reaching out to vulnerable communities, we aimed to share not just nourishment, but also dignity, hope, and reassurance that they are not alone. We firmly believe that true worship lies in serving others, and that every meal shared is a prayer in action. This initiative was made possible through the generosity of our donors and the tireless efforts of our dedicated volunteers, whose commitment transformed compassion into real impact. Together, we continue to work towards a future rooted in care, kindness, and humanity.
