The Akshaya Patra School will be honored at a special event today, April 2, 2024, at the United Nations for its mission to end child hunger in India. We are pleased to have Atal Bansal, CEO of @Chetu, and Shaili Bansal, co-founder of The Chetu Foundation, as guests.
Recently, The Chetu Foundation donated $60,000 to The Akshaya Patra Foundation to feed school-aged children in India. Over 200 million children in India face hunger during school hours, which results in poor attendance, a lack of focus, and low academic performance. To address this issue, The Akshaya Patra Foundation has initiated a program that provides free, nutritious mid-day meals to government school students throughout India.
