Food centre in Palakkad beckons poor, jobless with free meals

None should starve in Palakkad town. This motto has led a group of altruists from Palakkad and the neighbouring areas to open a food centre where every meal is free for everyone.

Named Win Borne Life Care Food, the centre is gaining in popularity as the number of people enjoying the meals served by Win Borne Public Trust has been on the rise ever since the charity venture was launched on June 25 this year.

Six women are employed to cook food thrice a day. They make either idli or upma or puttu in the morning, vegetarian rice meal for lunch, and idli or upma for dinner. While lunch is enjoyed by the most number of people, there are considerably fewer takers for breakfast and dinner.
