Indian Care Recipients Gather for an Early Deepavali Celebration
With Deepavali coming up next week, Tzu Chi held the 2024 Deepavali Distribution event, where 40 care recipients and their family members gathered at Jing Si Hall to celebrate the festival with volunteers. Besides captivating Indian dance and magic performances, the event served vegan Indian food, with a doctor sharing the concept of a whole-food plant-based diet to educate attendees on the importance of healthy eating. The care recipients also gave back to Tzu Chi by bringing their bamboo banks filled with savings from their daily lives. Some even helped decorate the Rangoli for the second year in a row, celebrating the festival together.
