“This is a joyous occasion for everyone to collectively revel in the achievement and inspire each other and all our participants to do more to selflessly and voluntarily serve the world with wholehearted compassion,” said Mohanji.
“In these 20 years, Ammucare, which began with zero resources but only passion for compassion, has grown into a global institution with over 500 volunteers and 55,000 participants spread across 34 countries.

We have served meals to over 500,000 people, donated over 1.2 million kg rations to people, fed over 200,000 kg to animals, and planted and ensured that over 80,000 fruit-trees are growing successfully.
