Chaitra Amavasya marks the first Amavasya of the year as per the Hindu Calendar. Therefore, it holds great significance in the context of religious rituals with people commemorating this day to honour the past and welcome the future.

People express gratitude to their ancestors, whose knowledge and experience form the basis of who they are today. Families carry out customs and do charity in order to receive abundant blessings from their forefathers.

In fact, feeding people on Chaitra Amavasya is considered one of the most noble charitable deeds.

Serve meals to honour your forefathers

In 2024, Chaitra Amavasya will be observed on 8 April. You can attain the blessings of your ancestors with one act of charity. Serve wholesome meals to homeless mothers in ashrams and children in government schools as part of your Chaitra Amavasya rituals this year.

Pay tribute to your ancestors by bringing joy to others.

Make a donation in their honour to help feed homeless mothers at ashrams and children in government schools. Your support will make a significant impact on their lives.
