The Himalaya–Akshaya Patra Partnership
Committed towards the community's well-being, we have collaborated with The Akshaya Patra Foundation for the welfare of underprivileged children. Akshaya Patra strives to eliminate hunger, especially amongst underprivileged children, by implementing a Mid-Day Meal Program in government schools and government-aided schools in India.
We support the Mid-Day Meal Program by helping serve nutritional meals to over 50,000 children in Bengaluru. We have also donated four vans to transport food from the central Akshaya Patra kitchen to various schools. In addition, we have sponsored 7,146 “Happiness Kits” along with dry ration kits to underprivileged children and their families. Stationery items such as activity workbooks, crayons, color pencils, pens, pencils, notebooks, and hygiene products such as sanitary pads, toothpaste, and toothbrushes were included in the “Happiness Kits”.
