Letter to editor sharing story where you took initiative to help those in need diring lockdown.

Q. You came across an article in the newspaper about how a group of students got together to show their gratitude to the police and sanitation workers who worked tirelessly during the lockdown by providing them with foodstuffs like fruit, biscuits, tetra packs of juice and milk, packaged water and other things like masks and sanitizers. They approached NGOs, did fundraisers and collected donations. There are countless such stories about people helping each other at a time like this. 
Write a letter to the editor of a national daily sharing one such story, where you took the initiative to help those in need during the lockdown. You are Vedanshi/ Vedant, of 15 A, Petals Society, Bengaluru. (120- 150 words).

Subject: Story where I took an initiative to help those in need during lockdown.

Sir

Through the columns of your esteemed daily I wish to share a story where I took initiative to help those in lockdown.

The govt of India had ordered a nation wide lockdown on 22 march till 31st may 2020. However, essential services were continued such as grocery, medicines etc. Many families became jobless and ideal at homes. Taking this into consideration, I (took an initiative to) decided to help the needy. 

It was the sixteenth day of the lockdown. I was passing through the market and saw the poor searching for food in the rubbish. (I saw the poor roaming door to door for some help for his family.) I felt how these people are passing through the difficult times of this covid. I discussed with my nearest neighbour about this and arrive at the decision to help those in need during this COVID lockdown. We together had made a plan and estimated our budget. We sorted the items and ordered it.  We make noticed to the needy about the offering of the same. We gave them flour, sugar, tea, rice, pulses, oil and so on as charity. We also gave them medicines, masks and sanitizers giving them information regarding pandemic and give preventive measures. They were very happy  and gave blessings to us. It was a great pleasure for me to see smile on their faces.  

I hope you will publish my story in your newspaper so that individuals help each other in this hard time.

Yours truly
vedant.
