Replenishing hope with Family happiness kits
Try
taking a walk outside your house; how many lost faces do you see? So many faces
speak of different problems at varying levels. Their problems might be plenty
and grave but there is one thing common on their faces – the hope of a better
time ahead.
When
you feed the hungry people, have you
seen the smile on their faces?
It is
very genuine.
It is
almost like they thank you for giving them food when they needed it the most.
During times like the COVID pandemic, many people are struggling with saving money in case another lockdown is enforced to curb the spread of the virus. With the little money they have, they are not able to feed the hungry stomachs of their families and children.
In the 2021 Global Hunger Index, India ranks 101st
out of the 116 countries.
This year, it slipped from its rank of 94 last year, in 2020.
What does this mean?
It
means that the level of hunger in India is yet termed as ‘serious.’ According
to FAO, 189.2 million people of India are undernourished. This also means that
an alarming 14% of the population is undernourished.
Support families with your help
Why
should you help people who suffer? The answer is pretty straightforward –
because we as human beings cannot turn a blind eye towards their sufferings. And
for the development of a nation, it is important that we all move towards collective
empowerment without which an upward growth trajectory is difficult to achieve.
Akshaya
Patra’s primary cause is to feed school children by serving them mid-day meals.
However, the Foundation also feeds people in need when the situation calls for
help.
Gift people food and essentials with Akshaya
Patra
Support
people in need with your online donations to Akshaya Patra. You can provide
food, ration, essentials, hygiene products and educational materials to people
in need during this pandemic.
What is inside the Family Happiness Kit?
Your
support to provide them with this kit helps them to be on a full stomach by
cooking 120 meals for a family of four. So the next time you see people
struggling for food, you know you can help them with Akshaya Patra. This
Foundation feeds people who also live in inaccessible areas without food and
shelter. Your contribution can bring hopes of better days ahead with healthy
and nutritious meals.
