CSR opportunities with Akshaya Patra

Since inception, The Akshaya Patra Foundation has received valuable support from its philanthropic Corporate Partners. As a part of Corporate Social Responsibility, many Private and Public sector organizations have wholeheartedly come forward to support the cause of Akshaya Patra. CSR support whether in the form of donations, volunteering or fundraising has helped Akshaya Patra in creating awareness and achieving many of its objectives.

Akshaya Patra employs a Public-Private Partnership model to implement its Mid-Day Meal Programme. Through this programme the Foundation aims at countering two critical issues- hunger and illiteracy. Hence a strategic partnership of Companies through Corporate Social Responsibility with Akshaya Patra has the potential to bring in a future that will be hunger-free and educated. Akshaya Patra believes this collaborative effort has the power to reach out to the thousands of children across India who are in need of help.

The role of NGOs in CSR activities can be indeed very rewarding. One, it will be a step towards a better future and second the Companies will achieve their CSR and business objectives. If planned and executed well, CSR support can prove to be the cornerstone of progress for a NGO. Keeping in line with this, Akshaya Patra too gives ample opportunities for its CSR partners so as to make the partnership long lasting and fulfilling. All the CSR activities of the Foundation are directed towards realizing the purpose of ‘unlimited food for education’.

Many CSR opportunities are made available for the Companies who choose to partner with us. Below are a few of them:

• Strategic philanthropy through cash & in-kind contributions
