AkshayaPatra.org - A Mission To Feed Millions Of Underprivileged Children

Oct. 13, 2008 - PRLog -- The AkshayaPatra Foundation (TAPF) was founded in 2000, to address the dual challenges of hunger and education in India. The organization provided nutrition-rich midday meals to extremely underprivileged children in India with the aim of increasing school enrollment, reducing drop-out rates, and improving academic performance.

The AkshayaPatra program had a simple vision: “No child in India should be deprived of education because of hunger.” Since India is having enormous population, this vision was difficult to realize. So, in order to fulfill this vision it is feeding 1,500 students in five schools in Bangalore. It was one of the first organizations in the region to provide freshly cooked, hot and nutritious, balanced meals, and within six months of starting the program, it had requests from 3,000 schools.

AkshayaPatra is funded through a combination of government subsidies and private donations. Donation is the fastest and easiest way in which you could help these underprivileged children.

Millions of hopeful children are waiting for you, even a small contribution can make a big difference.
