With the rule TAKE WHAT YOU NEED, LEAVE WHAT YOU CAN, a Blessing hut was founded at Nutan Leikul village in order to assist the needy people during this pandemic.

Faced with unprecedented challenges due to covid-19 many families are pushed to the brink of poverty worldwide. Many Daily wage earners are fighting for employment. Even in a close-knit community chances are high that a sole breadwinner of a family could no longer put food on the table and go unnoticed. Since many usually choose hunger over begging, if such cases arise, in order to protect the dignity of our fellow villagers, the people of N. Leikul started a concept called THE BLESSING HUT (PHATTHEI NA BUH)  as a social experiment.

The rule here is simple TAKE WHAT YOU NEED, LEAVE WHAT YOU CAN. Anybody can donate anything from veggies, food, clothes, books to anything they deem fit. And anyone can take anything they need, free of cost.

A week has gone by since its opening and all we can say is, it is working and working well. This concept of protecting the dignity of our fellow villagers, N Leikul’s people has inspired the mass for doing such work for the people in distress.

Earlier also the Chief of N Leikul village with the help N Leikul Youth Club and Leikul villagers arranged space for local vegetables of the village for helping the needy in these hard times which cannot be described by the words how grateful they truly were.
