Seva Mandir

Seva Mandir's mission is to make real the idea of society consisting of free and equal citizens who are able to come together and solve the problems that affect them in their particular contexts. The commitment is to work for a paradigm of development and governance that is democratic and polyarchic. Seva Mandir seeks to institutionalise the idea that development and governance is not only to be left to the State and its formal bodies like the legislature and the bureaucracy, but that citizens and their associations should engage separately and jointly with the State. The mission briefly, is to construct the conditions in which citizens of plural backgrounds and perspectives can come together and deliberate on how they can work to benefit and empower the least advantaged in society.

Maisto bankas

In 2020 „Maisto bankas" rescued 5307 tons of edible food, which otherwise would have gone to landfill. Food waste is a major ecological issue. About 25 percent of global greenhouse gas emission is generated by the food supply chain. One third of all the food produced for human consumption is wasted. Which means that food, that has already caused a negative impact on planet earth, is discarded. On the other hand, 20 percent of lithuanian population suffers food insufficiency. By saving food „Maisto bankas" solves two problems - ecological and social. "Maisto bankas" is the largest and most recognizable Lithuanian charity, working in collaboration with 600 local organizations operating in 81 Lithuanian cities and towns. Every fifth family in Lithuania faces an unpleasant dilemma every week - to allocate their very limited family budget for food or other necessities - medicines or after-school activities for children. We work hard to ensure that families do not face such choice and as less as possible would go to sleep hungry. Maisto bankas has resources to reach only 1/3 of all people in need. We struggle to support living in distant regions. Therefore we sincerely ask you to donate to Maisto bankas. With the donation of 1 Euro we can provide 15 meals, so even small gifts of funds matter. Sincere thanks for your kindness!
