Serving Hearts and Plates: Leos Combat Hunger in Lalitpur
Leo Club of Kathmandu Himalayas Patan
Leo Club of Kathmandu Himalayas Patan transformed the second day of Leo Week into action against hunger at Fresh Nepal in Talchikhel. The December 2nd event brought Cluster 1 clubs together to provide nutritious meals and companionship to community members facing food insecurity.
Nourishment Beyond Food
Beginning at 4 PM, the Hunger Relief Program delivered:
- Hot, balanced meals prepared with care
- Dignified service in a welcoming environment
- Person-to-person connection often missing in food distribution
- Essential supplies to supplement the meal service
By choosing Fresh Nepal as their venue, the Leos created an atmosphere of respect rather than charity, honoring the dignity of each person served.
Cluster Collaboration in Action
This initiative showcased the power of Leo Cluster 1's unified approach to community challenges. Multiple clubs pooled resources, volunteers, and expertise to create a more substantial impact than any single club could achieve alone.
"When we serve together, we not only help more people but also learn from each other's approaches," noted a participating Leo. "Today we saw how small acts of kindness, multiplied through collaboration, create meaningful change."
Leo Week Momentum
As the second event in Leo Week's packed calendar, the Hunger Relief Program built momentum for the remaining celebrations while addressing one of society's most fundamental needs. The success of this event established a tone of practical, hands-on service that will characterize the entire week.
