BENGALURU, 23 April 2020 (GNI): sCoolMeal & Lil’Goodness, a Bangalore based kids’ food and nutrition start-up, is partnering with Swiggy’s Hope, not Hunger campaign to provide nutritious, hygienic meals to the less privileged children in Bangalore.

The company served 25,000 meals in the past week to underprivileged kids in Bangalore.

We are delighted to partner with Swiggy’s ‘Hope, Not Hunger’ initiative to provide much-needed help to the needy. We are an early-stage start-up ourselves but we will continue to participate and collaborate in whatever way we could to overcome this COVID 19 pandemic soon and contribute to the wellbeing of our nation.”
