On 17th October, PCER (Autonomous), Chembur, in collaboration with the Department of Lifelong Learning and Extension (DLLE), organized the ‘Fistful of Grains’ initiative to mark World Food Day and Eradication of Poverty. Aimed at addressing food insecurity in urban slums, the drive collected 60 kgs each of rice and sugar, and 40 kgs of dal. Over 100 families near Chembur Signal and the Eastern Express Highway received these essential supplies. Students led the distribution, going door-to-door with community support. The initiative fostered compassion, collective action, and hope, making a meaningful difference in the lives of vulnerable families.
