The Editors desk
Another year passes us by and we move on to the next. Resolutions and promises to
self accentuated by the hopeful newness colour each January, just as they coloured
2018, still a bud waiting to bloom. Time is now fragmented to measure, to stay ahead
of it but the best of us forget time is eternal and we are not. Yet, time doesn’t change
the course of history, we do. Contrary to popular sayings it is not time that changes
the world, for time is beyond change, it is our agency that makes war and makes
peace. What counts is the knowledge of our strength and not fall prey to easy
defeatism. Because to give up is always easy and forget about our strengths. So, this
new year let’s broaden our resolutions that we could not commit to last year and let us
not give up.
With this resolve I welcome you back to the 12th issue of the Food 4 Thought
Foundation Newsletter which encloses our journey till December 2017 , Our
achievements and new stories weaved.
Stay in touch with us by downloading the Food4Thought Foundation App from Google
store. Follow us on Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/LinkedIn/YouTube for regular
updates.
Happy Reading & Happy Sharing! Till we meet again.

Building Libraries
It has been proven that reading not only develops the mind and imagination but also broadens perspectives, opens one to diversity, builds acceptance and accommodation of differences and most critically, ensures that future generations are aware & enlightened.
Food4Thought Foundation believes in igniting a Reading Revolution-where reading, for pleasure or otherwise, becomes a regular & lifetime habit across a wide range of the population, cutting across age, gender, geography, caste, creed, religion or economics.
We are thankful to every Donor and Volunteer for achieving 114 libraries , Today Food4thoughtfoundation is spread in 17 states and 51 cities with a contribution of 30000+ books.

Save Endangered Stories We at Food 4 Thought Foundation believe in this age of fast life, we are losing touch with our past. One of the everlasting strengths of our culture has been its ethos which has been passed over centuries through folklore & stories, and with each passing day these stories are getting in lost in maze of unwarranted data & information
Project Save Endangered Story focuses on recording & saving endangered stories, folklore etc . which are being passed through generations and are now facing a possible of extinction. These recorded stories will also be digitised and be available for wider circulation & references through e-Library
