Humanity is the greatest wisdom to planet earth. Human intelligence can pave a way for making the planet earth the best place to live in for all creatures with harmony. However, unfortunately humans themselves have polarized themselves from humanity. They have just utilized their mind, i.e, the greatest gift by god to sastify their own needs and greeds. thereby, not only they have destroyed their own planet, making living of other living beings close to impossible, but also they have created a huge inequality among humanity.
The greed for power and money have made people ruthless and merciless. Moreover, as resources are limited, the rich with all their sources are utilizing all of them and making themselves richer, while the poor are deviod of the basic necessity of human life. Therefore, we see that while many people lead a life of luxury and spend crores of rupees everyday, the majority of the society cannot even get three times food a day. What concerns more that the rich are not even caring about the fact that poor people seems to exist. For them, till their pockets are full, they are well contained with their life.

However, there are some messiahs in this world who continue to keep the legacy of humanity. Their selfess deeds are just for helping the poor and making them equal without any personal/professional motto or agenda. These are the people/ institutions who keep the faith in humanity alive. One such institution is Annapurna Finance who just celebrated its 31st Foundation day.
Under the charismatic leadership and exemplary visionary of CMD Govind Pattnaik, Annapurna Finance for 31 years, have been selflessly serving the poor. Such is the grandosity of equality and humanity Annapurna Finance are living up to everyday. In its 31st Foundation day, the principal team of Annapurna Finance vouched for a mission of eradicating poverty from the lives of people. Yes, it might seem impossible but if every people get the zeal like Annapurna Finance and join hand together, humanity might see end of poverty in the future.
