World Milk 2020: How to Celebrate
Last year, the World Milk Day theme in India was ‘Drink Milk: Today and Every day’. Every year, the theme aims to spread more and more awareness about including milk and dairy products in the diet regularly. Various NGOs and other organisation contributing to the cause also donate free milk packets to the underprivileged children and release new policy to make sure that at least children of all ages and in all regions get to have milk daily.
With COVID-19 pandemic creating lives difficult for everyone, it won’t be a bad idea to donate some milk packets to needy people around you to mark World Milk Day 2020!
