Our work · Field diary

Every time we go into the field, it will be written down here.

The date, the place, what was given and to how many people, what it cost, and photos from the day. No entry has been published yet, so this page has nothing to add up and shows no totals.

Entries published: 0

The first page is still blank.

We have not published an entry from the field yet, so there are no totals here: no people served, no meals, no districts. We would rather show an empty page than a made-up one.

Our main work is feeding people who cannot afford food, in Haryana. When we go out to do it, the outing will be written up here with every field on the right filled in from the day itself.

House rules

How this diary is kept

  1. 01

    Totals are added up, never typed in

    Every total on this page is a sum over the published entries. There is no headline figure kept anywhere else.

  2. 02

    A blank stays blank

    If an outing did not record how many meals or volunteers there were, that figure is left out, not estimated. Counts are per outing, so someone helped on two days is counted twice.

  3. 03

    Photos without locations, people without names

    Photos are re-encoded and stripped of their location data before they are published. We do not name the people we help.

  4. 04

    Costs tie back to the accounts

    What each outing cost will be shown with it once our accounts are published. They are being reviewed first, so no money figures appear here yet.
