Pandemic: who a very poor mom became one of the richest(heart)

[EIlen]

Real life incidents that make impact

This incident happened on May 12th.

Friends this is very heart touching. Today as we, the members of Rotary Heritage Mysuru, were busy in our Annadaana preparations, a seemingly poor, over 70 year old senior citizen, Kamalamma walked in to the premise.

Our natural expectation was that she might ask us for some food. Even as we extended the food packets to her, she refused...a little hesitatingly she mustered up some courage and took out something hidden behind the clothes and said..." I have been watching you guys supplying food to my area for over 30 days now...so i just felt i should give you Rs 500/- from the Rs 600/- monthly pension i receive. It is a small amount but please accept".

We were shocked , we were embarrassed that we offered her food, we were taken aback by her gesture of parting Rs 500 out Rs 600 pension she receives and that too in such difficult times. In spite of our several requests to keep the money, she insisted that we accept it,which we did out of sheer respect for her.

Friends at that moment we felt she is no less than the Tatas, Ambanis, Azim premji, Narayan Murthy etc as she was parting with 90% of her earnings. We could witness the magnanimity of a mother's heart, however poor she might be. YES WE WERE TRULY HUMBLED.

{I requested my mom to pay at least as 15k as an "ex gratia" to our maid, my mom pays her is 1500 INR monthly and her husband lost factory job last year due to lockdown and the its permanently closed it seems. Now the maid is the sole breadwinner for the family until her husband get a job}

3 of these are well known scumbags, does the donations also count towards organizing riots and destroying health with fake vaccines
