Zomato launched the ‘Feed the Daily Wager’ initiative March 24 to support and ensure meals for workers at construction sites, shops, restaurants, delivery staff, and local transport systems who earn on daily basis.
As part of this campaign, the food delivery giant will provide ration kits to the daily wager communities that are currently unable to support their family’s food requirement.
“Each kit will cost Rs 500 and will be delivered to various locations across 26 cities. We have partnered with local NGOs across these cities to help us distribute these kits responsibly, while adhering to social distancing norms, to ensure the safety of volunteers and beneficiaries,” Zomato said in a statement.
