With the vision ‘No child in India
shall be deprived of education because of hunger’, The Akshaya Patra Foundation
set forth its journey in June 2000. It began implementing the Mid-Day Meal
Programme by feeding just 1,500 children in five government schools of
Bengaluru city. Over the service of 15 years the beneficiary of the NGO has
increased to nearly 15 lakhs and it is operational in 24 locations across 10
states of India. As The Akshaya Patra Foundation gets ready for celebrating 15
years of service towards children, it acknowledges the support and aid it has
received from generous and sympathetic supporters like you. It also acknowledges that without the
philanthropic support that the Foundation has received over the years such a
leap in beneficiary base and operational expansion would not have been
possible. We express our heartfelt gratitude to all of you for having journeyed
with us for over a decade.
In
order to further the potential and reach of the Mid-Day Meal Programme, Akshaya Patra
brings together dedication, technological innovation, standard operational
processes and good governance into practice. The amalgamation of all these
elements allows the Foundation to serve clean, hygienic, freshly cooked
nutritious meal to lakhs of children every day across all locations. To get a
quick review of the past 15 years and the distance we have covered in reaching
our mission of feeding 5 million children by 2020, join us in celebrating 15 years of
service through which lakhs of underserved children received the goodness
of food and much needed education.
