After donations, now 'Naam' helps the families by providing a means to earn!

Nana Patekar, who had collected Rs.80 lakh for the relief of farmers in August last year that set an example, has now given away sewing machines to the families of farmers who committed suicide, thus he is quietly helping the drought-hit farmers of Maharashtra.

After distributing cheques of Rs. 15,000 to 62 families in August, himself and Makrand Anaspure, another famous Maharashtrian actor formed an institution called ‘Naam’ and has been actively taking part in helping the drought hit families. Naam has been abled to raise 22 crores from the people only for the sole purpose of helping the farmers.

The foundation has helped a number of farmers and has been adopting villages to make them as examples of betterment. Not only donations, the foundation is quite active in trying to restore dried up rivers and lakes so that farmers can in any case, get drinking water.

This is perhaps a lesson for all of us wherein we must understand that the hue and cry can be ended when we take up the charge and resort to finding solutions that help.

Kudos to you Nana! You are the true inspiring national hero!
