Dr. Payal Kanodia, the Trustee in M3M Foundation who ensured immediate help to Mamta said, “The demise of Ravi Kant Verma was not only a tragic incident for the family but also for the M3M Family.
Responsibility to help the family
“As an organization it was now our responsibility to help the family to regain its confidence and look forward in life. M3M Foundation immediately got in touch with Mamta and came to know that she is not that well educated so she can be employed. But we also came to know that she had learnt cooking few years back and her interest in cooking was still alive.”, she said
Making the family financially independent
“After discussing with her and assessing her inclination towards cooking, the M3M Foundation decided to open for her a small restaurant of fast-food that would help her regain her confidence and also make the family financially independent. M3M Foundation has a program named ‘Kaushal Sambal’ and under this program the Foundation will also provide her all the help for at least 2-years.” Dr. Payal added.
Sai Di Kitchen
“After the demise of Ravi I became absolutely lost. I had no idea of how life and education etc of my two daughters would move from here now. Then came M3M Foundation for help and with all counseling and motivation, I started regaining my strength. M3M Foundation helped me by setting a fast food restaurant for me and now I have become an owner or entrepreneur as you call it. I have named my small restaurant as – “Sai Di Kitchen”, located in Sainik Market, Faridabad. It is a fast-food restaurant and by the grace of god and M3M Foundation, I shall be able to bring my life back on track. Nothing can replace my husband, but the life has to move”, said Mamta with tears in her eyes.
