Food 4 Thought Foundation

Food 4 Thought Foundation We believe in ‘Connecting Idle Books to Hungry Minds’ and fulfilling every book lover's wish & request – "Just one more page please . . . "

The current Khumabamattu family is a assimilation and reflection of other families like the Gades, Shuklas, Ravals and Sharmas. The families comes from all part of the country with wide varied cultural influences & differences, but one common think that runs across all of them is the love of books & reading. The families have folklore running back into generations about their love for books, start

ing from the late 1890 and early 1900 where in our great great grand mother would bribe her children to buy pakodas so that she could be able to the read news, as the pakodas would be covered in them for packing. During the partition when one of the families had to migrate from Pakistan to India overnight, we hear from our grandmother that only two things were protected and transported - books & babies. In the early 60’s our parents and their siblings donated their books to the village schools etc.as and when they had them in excess. During our times we instituted scholarships, shared knowledge across the breadth of the country free of cost, facilitated building careers through life skill programs etc. In the current generation our children carry forward the legacy by doing reading sessions at their schools, sharing their books with others post reading, positing blogs on what to read and why etc. Over the years the yearning to structure this urge of positive change has resulted in establishment of this foundation - Food4Thought Foundation. We fundamentally believe that the purpose of a book is to keep travelling and feed millions of hungry minds, bring joy to million hearts and to lighten a million souls. We are proud that what began as a initiative of a family has become a movement of passionate book lovers. Hundreds have joined us, in various forms making contributions all through out. As a larger Food4Thought Family we commit to continue to work tirelessly to help achieve this dream of connecting idle books to hungry minds and ensuring that every child tells their parents one more page please.
