Western India Culinary/Chef’s Forum (WICA) has come forward to help needy people due to global pandemic Covid – 19. The association has donated a sum of Rs one lac towards “Feed the Daily Wager”. This programme is run by feeding India for food assistance to daily wager and migrant workers affected by covid19 lockdown. The contribution has helped feed 200 families of daily wagers with 2 meals a day of dry ration for a week.
Chef Vernon Coelho, President Western India Culinary/Chefs Forum says “Chef’s historically and professionally has always gone beyond their call of duty to support humanitarian causes in such trying times. This is a small gesture from WICA to support those affected by the lockdown and are in distress”.
One of the top chef from Mumbai, who is a member of WICA on the condition of anonymity said “Chef’s from Mumbai are always ahead for social causes whenever the need arises. During the International Chefs Day, all the chefs from small to big hotels come forward to provide free meals and gifts to children from slum areas. Similarly during Christmas time and other festivals chefs provide cakes and eatables to destitute child, slum areas, old age home and other charitable institutions”.
