DORAHA (LUDHIANA), PUNJAB, 2 October 2026: Founded in 1996 by Mr. Anil K. Monga, DBC Trust commemorated its three-decade journey on October 2, reflecting the values of Truth, Peace, Service and Humanity that have guided its work. Speaking on the milestone, Mr. Anil K. Monga, Chairman, DBC Trust, who has made more than 100 trips from New York to India in connection with the Trust’s work, said, “More than 30 years ago, we set out with a simple belief that serving humanity is the highest duty. Every meal served, every young person placed in a job and every senior citizen who calls Heavenly Palace home reminds us that this work belongs to the many people who have walked with us. We are grateful to them, and we are only getting started.”

Three Decades of Impact

Over three decades, DBC Trust has built humanitarian initiatives spanning hunger alleviation, healthcare, livelihood development, senior care and child welfare. Through Brahmbhog, more than 30 million meals have been served, with approximately 20,000 meals currently distributed every day across Delhi and Punjab through 11 food trucks. Its Margdarshan initiative has trained and placed more than 11,000 young people in employment, approximately 85% of them young women between the ages of 18 and 25.

Through Karma Healthcare, five ambulances provide medical check-ups and medicines to approximately 800-1,000 people daily, while the Trust has facilitated more than 500 general surgeries in association with over 25 specialised hospitals. Heavenly Palace, spread across 14 acres, provides a home and community to more than 500 senior citizens onboard at this time, complemented by the newly opened 150-bed Joyful Living facility for homeless seniors and deprived women. Heavenly Angels provides a loving home, education and holistic development to more than 150 orphaned and abandoned children.

Acharya Mahamandleshwar Swami Kailashanand Giri ji Maharaj, who has been involved with the activities of the trust from 2009, graced the occasion as Chief Guest, praised the work of the organisation and spoke about the selfless service being carried out at Heavenly Palace and the importance of serving without expectation, with love and compassion for all.
Kyle Monga, Vice Chairman, DBC Trust, emphasised the importance of carrying forward the spirit of service. “Service to humanity is service to God. When we walk the path of compassion and selfless devotion, we not only transform ourselves, but also the lives of others,” he said.

Reflecting on the occasion, Mrs. Pooja Grover, Founder of Mindful Intuitions Inc., who travelled from Canada to attend as Special Guest, said, “There is an energy of purity in the work being done here, and that is what drew me to serve in this organization. Whether nurturing a child or bringing dignity and belonging to a senior, every opportunity to touch a life is an opportunity to serve humanity. It is a privilege to be part of this journey.”

Mahamandleshwar Swami Advaitananda Giri ji, Chairman of the International Meditation Foundation, highlighted the importance of holistic education and values, drawing attention to the work of Heavenly Angels, where more than 150 orphaned and abandoned children are being nurtured through education, care and Sanskar Shiksha.

Padma Bhushan Dr. Sardara Singh Johl, Special Advisor to DBC Trust, graced the occasion, commended the Trust’s humanitarian work and delivered the vote of thanks, expressing gratitude to the distinguished guests and all those who joined the celebration.
