The essence of Diwali lies in its spirit of generosity, which sees friends and relatives exchange gifts with those most important to them. And yet a festival that should be celebrated by all means nothing to those without the means to celebrate. The homeless and the orphaned, children who scrape by with no notion of anything but the hardships and hunger of life deserve to smile during Diwali.
Orphans afflicted with HIV are society’s most vulnerable members, alone and without a family to rely on. Fate has placed a cruel burden on these children, and Faasos is determined to help them bear it. Faasos fulfills the culinary desires of thousands of people every day, but we don’t believe that the luxury of a meal should be denied to anyone. That’s why this Diwali, Faasos will let anyone ask #AajKhaneMeinKyaHai.
Faasos is reviving the charitable spirit of the season with the introduction of a special Diwali coupon code – LIGHTUP. All a customer has to do is place their order using this code and Faasos will donate the entire order amount to The Desire Organization. An equivalent amount will also be contributed by InnoVen Capital, India’s first and largest Venture Debt provider which has also invested in Faasos. With the help of it’s customers, Faasos along with InnoVen Capital, plan to raise at least Rs. 5 Lakhs, enough to provide meals to 200 children for 30 days.
Revant Bhate, Head of Marketing, Faasos, said
‘AajKhaneMeinKyaHai’, is the core element of our business, and yet for so many people across our country, the question is not what, but if, they’ll be eating today. We’ve decided that we want to make a positive change this Diwali season, and focus all of our efforts on providing delicious meals to those who need them the most. In partnership with InnoVen, we’ve decided to donate the full cost of any meal order placed with our specially released coupon code to the Desire Organization, to live up to the true spirit of generosity that Diwali is built around.
So, brighten someone’s life this Diwali, and let the joy on their faces light up your holiday. Order on Faasos using the coupon code LIGHTUP.
