Street singer in #goa gets new home thanks to Street Providence Trust

Street providence trust Goa gets help to this Goan man Mr Johnny / Rony from TIVIM / SIRSIAM BARDEZ GOA INDIA . Let's say JOHNNY is his name. A good singer and a smooth talker, well known around mapusa and Panjim. I had met him a few months back while feeding the on the streets of Panjim and he at that time came to our home at Porvorim to stay but changed his mind and went away . In January 2019 he again was admitted in our home at BATIM but in 15 days he troubled and asked to be released. Say by beginning Feb 2019 he wax spotted in dirty attire in different parts of mapysa, begging for food , help. There was a video circulating on social media of him asking for help which reached us. We tried 3 times helping him but still he refused to come with us. Finally looks like he had an accident and tried to get himself admitted into the district hospital Mapusa, but then who will touch a dirty man. Finally I think some where mid March 2019 we managed to get him to our home at Assnora ( video attached of 18 sec ) and he was really dirty , smelling and could not even stand. Claims he is from TIVIM / SIRSIAM. If any one knows any family member of his please let them know he is with us or whatsapp me on 8380097564. It's our desire that no man should leave this earth without his family members knowledge. Looking after such men is okay, but finding their family members is priority. After 1 month of help , care and good food with reasoning and force, today Johnny can walk straight and is much better . ( added a video of 57 sec ). Pleaee watch both videos and share this post with both videos. As far as I remember he could not hold his toilet habit in the past . But this time in our home at Assnora, he is using the toilet very well and there is no complaints of any dirty habit in his pants . A very good sign of improvement without medicine. A very good singer but he can't sit in 1 place as most of his life he has spent travelling from city to city . If you come across such homeless street men who are lost and loitering around aimlessly then it's time you tried to talk to them and make them understand that they should get off the road and into a shelter home , where they will get food , clothing, shelter, etc . As usual we operate only thru whatsapp messages only on 8380097564 . We require partners as well as support. Your support means alot to us @ STREET PROVIDENCE Goa .

PLASTIC

Number 42 on the American Film Institute's list of the top 100 movie quotations is one word: “Plastics.” Many of you will recognise it as part of the conversation 21-year-old Ben, played by Dustin Hoffman, had with one of his father’s worldly-wise friends at a party to celebrate his graduation. "There's a great future in plastics. Think about it. Will you think about it?” says the middle-aged man to the young and confused man about to enter adult life.   Fast-forward 52 years, billions of smartphones with heads hunched over and many more billions of dollars in venture capital and we’re at 22,000 tonnes. That’s how much plastic waste is generated each month as a byproduct of online food deliveries in India. The lion’s share comes from Swiggy and Zomato, the two Goliaths in the space, together accounting for over 60 million food deliveries each month.    It’s a mountain that’s piling up with no immediate end in sight. Because organic or eco-friendly alternatives to

Godrej Nature's Basket: when evolution is done wrong

Video killed the radio star. Then, video went from large TV screens to smartphone screens. Pedal power went to combustion engines to electric vehicles. Local stores became supermarkets, then went online. Actually, everything went online (sadly even social communication). The point is evolution. Natural evolution, not forced evolution. And forced evolution is what did Godrej Nature’s Basket (GNB) in. Its start, in 2010, was focussed enough - one store, in an upmarket region in Mumbai, selling only premium gourmet food items like artisanal bread, wine and imported cheese. Then came the expansion over the years. To New Delhi, Pune, and other cities. To selling private-label brands and going online.  So far, so natural. Coupled with revenue growth that was picking up. Then came 2016-17, and with it ‘GNB Refresh 2020.’ A marketing tagline that essentially meant the brand took a 180° spin - from a 'World Food Store' to a 'Daily Food Delights' store. It became a neighbourhood
