Serve children with compassion, inspire lasting impact and help realise the vision of a brighter, educated tomorrow.

The Akshaya Patra Foundation implements the Government of India’s PM POSHAN Abhiyaan, serving 2.25 million+ children across 78 locations in 16 states & 3 UTs with fresh, nutritious mid-day meals every school day.

The Impact of Mid-Day Meals

According to the Ministry of Finance, school dropout rates in India have steadily declined in recent years, standing at 1.9% for primary and 5.2% for upper primary.  The PM POSHAN Abhiyaan (Mid-Day Meal Scheme) continues to play an important role in improving enrolment and retention of children in government schools.

Join us in creating a brighter, educated tomorrow for millions of children.

Through your generosity, you will help feed nourishing mid-day meals to children and secure their access to nutrition. Children coming from challenging backgrounds often compromise on nutritional meals. To support these children, donate to Akshaya Patra.

Why Your Support Matters
Despite progress, many children still struggle to access proper nutrition. Through your support, we can change that.
