CNN Hero, Narayanan Krishnan, gave up a career as a chef to feed the homeless three meals a day in Madurai, India. This video illustrates why he truly is a hero at 29 years of age.
“5.5 liters of blood;” Mr. Krishan could not have said it better.
Mr. Krishnan founded his nonprofit Akshaya Trust in 2003. He has served more than 1.2 million meals – breakfast, lunch and dinner – to India’s homeless and destitute, mostly elderly people abandoned by their families and often abused. “Krishnan brings hot meals and dignity to India’s homeless and destitute – 365 days a year,” CNN said.
Please share this video and may we all have the heart to give (and receive) as Mr. Krishnan does. Please watch the first 3 minutes (After that is an interview with Mr. Krishnan):
