Recognizing Niraj Jinan
WHEREAS, Niraj Jinan's mother taught him the value of not wasting food by
establishing a house rule that "you only take the food you need
and eat it all"; and
WHEREAS, Niraj learned that by wasting food, there is the consequence of
experiencing hunger; and
WHEREAS, his mother served his meal later in the evening along with an
article about school children going hungry every day; and
WHEREAS, after reading the article, Niraj felt compelled to help these
children who are unable to focus on school when they are
hungry.
WHEREAS, upon doing research, Niraj discovered the program Open Hand,
a non-profit that helps serve free, healthy meals to economically
and physically challenged people in the Atlanta area; and
WHEREAS, Niraj has made it his mission to raise money for Open Hand.
Now, therefore, we, the Mayor and City Council of the City of Milton, commend
Niraj Jinan for his compassion and commitment to serve those less fortunate and
for being an exemplary member of the Milton community.
Given under our hand and seal of the City of Milton, Georgia on this 18th day of
June, 2018.
