Akshaya Patra started their operation by feeding 1500 children in
five schools of Bangalore now it has scaled up to 1.3 million children
through 19 centres across 9 states of India. This is done through
centralized and decentralized model of kitchens. Through centralized
kitchen it feeds the children of urban and semi urban areas on the other
hand decentralized kitchen is meant for the interior areas which have
difficult terrain. Endeavour of Akshaya Patra enables the education to
reach many and to the far flung areas.
Gullu, a child from tribal area of Orissa got attracted to school
just because of food. Now he walks five miles per day and attends the
school. There are many such stories where parents allowed their children
to join school because of Akshaya Patra’s mid day meal.
All this good work has been possible
with the collective effort of many. Let this continue and with more
vigour so that Akshaya Patra can feed many more children and support in
building the future of India.
