Soup kitchen Krsna's Free Meals has encountered a spot of trouble, noting that volunteers have been cancelling their work with them without informing.Krsna's Free Meals, a soup kitchen in Little India, has asked volunteers to honour their commitments after multiple groups have cancelled on them without letting them know in advance, the kitchen revealed in a video uploaded to TikTok on Wednesday .
When that happens, the whole group then gets cold feet and bails on the voluntary work, leaving the kitchen at a loss for that day. Some suggested the kitchen take punitive action, blacklisting or shaming the volunteers, which the kitchen was hesitant to do.Others also suggested making the impacts of their cancellations more obvious to them: "When they sign up, let them know. Volunteering doesn't mean you can just not turn up. These are responsibilities."
Since January this year, volunteers have begun to cancel on them at least three times a week, and up to eight have cancelled at a time. Some common reasons are that they've gotten the flu or Covid-19, said Latha.
