Help Feed the Hungry Child with Akshaya
Patra Hyderabad
The Akshaya Patra Foundation started its initiative in
Andhra Pradesh with kitchens in Hyderabad and
Vishakhapatnam in 2008. This Hyderabad NGO today
feeds 54,849 children across 454 government schools
every day. It is a mission of this organisation to feed the
hungry child and provide them with food through the
mid-day meal programme, so that they can get an
education. The organisation supports this initiative
through generous donations online, as well as donations
received from the Central and State Governments, and
CSR initiatives.
The Hyderabad NGO also feeds 25,768 Anganwadi
children every day. This is an initiative to provide the
right nutrition to infants as well as pregnant and lactating
mothers in the area. The organisation understands that it
is vital to feed the hungry child, especially at a young age
as their bodies need the right nutrients to develop into
healthy, happy human beings. The Foundation receives
donations online from well-wishers all over India and
from the US and UK supporting the cause of food for
education.
The Hyderabad NGO started its Anganwadi programme
in November 2012 and feeds close to 26,000 individuals.
The organisation remaining true to its quest to feed the
hungry child has made plans to increase the provision of
Anganwadi feeding in Hyderabad to another 30,000
individuals in the coming months. The beneficiaries of
the Anganwadi programme are served a menu consisting
of Dhaliya Kichidi, Milk Sweet, Rice and Leah Dhal,
Jaggery Pongal, and snack items like Muruku, Biscuits,
Energy Bytes, Peanut Candy etc.

2. The AkshayaPatra
Foundation
It is the vision of this Foundation that no child shall be
deprived of education because of hunger. Feeding 1.39
million children through 22 kitchens across India every
day, the organisation aims to achieve its mission of
feeding 5 million children by 2020. This Hyderabad NGO
is constantly working toward achieving this goal and
implements continuous improvements in its kitchen for
this purpose. The Hyderabad kitchen expanded its
production capacity from 50,000 meals to 100,000 meals
in 2012-13. The kitchen also understands the need to
provide hygienic, tasty food with consistent quality to
feed the hungry child on every school day. The
Hyderabad kitchen is a centralised kitchen, and therefore
follows a highly mechanised, efficient cooking process
with minimum contact with the food. This ensures that
hygiene and quality standards remain high. The kitchen
won the award for the ‘Best Mid-Day Meal Provider’
award presented by EPICURUS, three times in a row, for
their high standards of quality.
For people who are interested in supporting this worthy
cause, online donations are a convenient, quick way to
contribute to the programme, else volunteer and fund
raise with the organisation and get involved with The
Akshaya Patra Foundation.
