Q1. What will Driving Volunteers be doing on November 4?

On November 4, you will be driving to Arcadia road and pickup up pizzas or samosas and/or other goodies to pass to migrant workers.

Q2. How can I join to be a driving volunteer? 

For interested drivers and riders, please join this group chat. Our sign up link will be shared on 6 October.

Q3. Who should I give this food to?

You can do one of two things:

Q4. Do we hand over the food to the workers or do we distribute one by one? For instance, one slice per worker or one samosa per worker until the food is over?

The benchmark is one pizza per 3 workers or one samosa per worker. If you opted for free distribution, then this applies. If you are delivering to a particular location, the supervisor has been informed of this. You will need to hand over to the site in charge, and they will manage the food distribution. They may also invite you inside to help with distribution at the site, please check with them. 

Q5. What do I have to do if I signup for a driving slot?

Q6. What if there are no driving slots left?

Please let us know. We will help release more slots.

Q7. If I choose to drive around freely, what happens if another car takes the same route as me? Will we duplicate efforts?

There are so many road works and regular cleaning projects on a daily basis. It is highly unlikely that there will be duplications, and workers are always honest to say they have been given already and don’t double dip.

Q8. Can I hand out some of the food to workers I come across instead of going to the slot I picked?

If you have signed up to deliver food to a specified location, please make sure that the whole batch of 30 pizzas or 90 samosas is delivered to that site only. They have been informed in advance and the workers will be waiting eagerly for your delivery. 

Q9. How many workers will I be delivering food to? Can I bring some sweets to pass on too?

Yes please! Feel free to bring mithai (traditional Indian sweets), clothes, chocolates or cold drinks to hand out.
