Gau Seva on Gopastami
It is stated in the Karttika-mahatmya section of the Padma Purana:
suklastami karttike tu smrta gopastami budhaih
tad-dinad vasudevo ‘bhud gopah purvam tu vatsapah
On the ashtami tithi of Sukla Paksha in the month of Kartik, when the Lord took the calfs for the first time for grazing at a very young age, and on the same day after a few years he took out the cows for grazing. Therefore this festival is celebrated as Gopashtami.
As Lord Krishna himself worshiped the cows on various occasions like Gopashtami and Govardhana-puja, people should worship the cows and protect them as well. ISKCON Juhu celebrates Gopastami at ISKCON Nilachal Vedic Village, which is the home for 450 indigenous breed of cows, by performing Go-puja on this day. Devotees feed, bathe and clean the cows and the Goshala.

Bhagavad Gita 2.40
In this endeavour of offering service to Lord Kṛṣṇa, you get eternal credit, and a little service offer to Lord Kṛṣṇa can protect one from the most dangerous type of fear.
Srimad Bhagavatam 10.11.11
While Kṛṣṇa was going to the fruit vendor very hastily, most of the grains He was holding fell. Nonetheless, the fruit vendor filled Kṛṣṇa’s hands with fruits, and her fruit basket was immediately filled with jewels and gold.
Srimad Bhagavatam 10.22.35
It is the duty of every living being to perform welfare activities for the benefit of others with his life, wealth, intelligence and words.
