Mission - No child in India shall be deprived of education because of hunger.
About the Organization : Akshaya Patra - http://akshayapatra.org
Akshaya Patra is a Non-Governmental Organization in India which supplies mid day meals to underprivileged school children. The Akshaya Patra Foundation, the world’s largest NGO-run midday meal program, has a vision that no child shall be deprived of education because of hunger.
For many of the children in india this is their only complete meal for the day. This gives them an incentive to come
to school, stay in school and provides them with the necessary nutrients they need to develop their cognitive abilities
to focus on learning.
How do we plan to help :
1) Donate money for this mid-day meal
Rs 150 = A movie for you ..... this can be 150 = Food for 3 months for one child
Rs 300 = A movie for you and your spouse.... This can be 300 = Food for 6 months for one child
Rs 600 = A dinner with your family ... This can be 600 = Food for 1 year for one child
Rs 1200 .... Do i need to say more :) ... This can be 1200 = Food for 1 year for two children.
2) Serve food to the kids and see them smile
3) A one-time fun activity for kids - drawing competition
4) Long term activity for Knowledge sharing.
When will we help :
Once we collect the money we will adopt a school in ahmedabad rural areas and provide food to the kids studying in this school.
The one time fun activity will be performed in this school which we adopt. We want your help to reach us before 15th June 2010.
We will invite all to participate in the activity and volunteer.
