During these uncertain times, how can we help?

The Akshaya Patra Foundation is a non-profit organisation that operates on a public-private partnership (PPP) model. Since Akshaya Patra acts as an implementing partner of the Mid-Day Meal Scheme, there is a firm support from the Government of India, the State Governments and associated organisations.
This has enabled Akshaya Patra’s school lunch programme to grow from feeding 1,500 children in the year 2000 to over 1.8 million children in 2019. On 11 February 2019, the organisation commemorated the serving of 3 billion meals (cumulative).
