The Akshaya Patra Foundation decided to step up its game with the introduction of a fun application, ‘Thali For All.’ Launched on February 13, 2014 the game is designed to sensitize players to the cause of Akshaya Patra (What cause), how the kitchens operate and the utmost importance given to food quality and safety, all in a way that’s fun and entertaining.
Accessible on Facebook, Thali For All brings to life the priorities of The Akshaya Patra Foundation. In this game, players have to serve meals according to the total number of children to be fed. The food has to be rationed out in terms of number of rotis, amount of sabji (vegetable dish), rice etc. Like in The Akshaya Patra Foundation kitchens, the food has to go through a quality check. One or two items of food will be missing and if the player doesn’t spot this he/she will be disqualified and have to start the process again. The game continues till all the supplies are utilised. The player wins based on turnaround time, minimum errors and maximum meals delivered.
The game captures the challenges The Akshaya Patra Foundation faces every day like ensuring excellent food quality, sufficient food quantity and on-time delivery of the food. This game also marks the first step of The Akshaya Patra Foundation in the direction of online gaming, something extremely popular with the youth worldwide. By utilising this platform, The Akshaya Patra Foundation is reaching out to an entire generation, making the cause of NGOs, donation and service to society something trendy and interesting, relatable (relevant) and above all fun.
