Sai Dham Food Bank’s founders

Inspired by a Region of Peel report revealing the statistics of people living in poverty, particularly seniors and those with disabilities, brother and sister team Vishal Khanna and Subhra Mukherjee created the Sai Dham Food Bank.

The fully volunteer run initiative of Sai Dham Canada, a not for profit, provides both regular food delivery and 24/7 one-time emergency food assistance to the most vulnerable groups who cannot easily access food banks, primarily seniors and those with disabilities. Sai Dham Food Bank also provides aid to communities facing adverse situations such as the victims of the Brant County fire, or bringing food to support local community events.

Vishwa Shukla, a family friend of Mukherjee who nominated Sai Dham, describes the group as: “Dedicated volunteers with the firm belief that no one should go hungry. Sai Dham Food Bank provides food to the needy, a noble deed worth recognizing.”
