The role of an NGO is vital in the progress of a socio-economic environment like India. Support Akshaya Patra and secure the future of Indian children.

1. It is a well-known and globally accepted fact that the role of an NGO is inevitable. Be it a developed
nation, developing or under-developed nation, NGO has a vital role to play in the growth and sustenance
of every nation. Especially, Indian child NGOs play a very significant role. This is so because the core role
of an Indian child NGO revolves around the health, education, and rights of the children especially of the
backward section of the society. The Indian child NGOs are seen as a ray of hope in bringing the
underprivileged section of the society at par with the privileged section.
The Akshaya Patra Foundation is one such Indian child NGO working towards eradicating classroom
hunger and illiteracy by the medium of providing mid-day meals to the children of Government schools.
It has responsibly taken the role of an NGO to cut through all barriers to make the benefits of the Mid-
Day Meal Scheme available even at the grass root level. This Indian child NGO has been in the service of
children since June 2000. Though it began with feeding just 1,500 children in a handful of 5 Government
schools in Bangalore, it has today increased its reach to 1.39 million children from more than 10,600
Government schools across 10 states of India.
The Central Government of India and various State Governments has been responsive to the role of an
NGO in expanding the mid-day meal programme and thus welcomes more NGO participation and also
provides subsidies and grants to run the programme. Apart from Government support, online donation
for NGO also plays a constructive role in filling the deficit amount that the NGOs face in managing the
programme. As internet has become the all in one platform for information seekers, the mode of online
donation for NGO is fast gaining popularity. Akshaya Patra too provides its supporters and donors the
ease of contributing online donation for NGO.
