why donate?

All it takes is Rs. 525 ($11.50 approx.) to feed a child for a full school year. This one meal will give that child much needed nutrition and energy. It will also transform its life.

Nearly 13.5 million children across India are out of school and into child labour in order to earn that single daily meal. Together WE can prevent this. By gifting them with this mid-day meal through your generosity, you become a part of their lives and their dreams. Your contribution will mean the difference between poverty and prosperity.

Over 1.2 million children throughout the country are currently benefiting from the program implemented by Akshaya Patra. This school lunch is their hope for a brighter future and their chance to make dreams come true. In many cases, it is also their only meal of the day.

Akshaya Patra's mid-day meal program is unique in that we address two problems at once: not only do we provide these children with much needed nutrition, but also encourage them in their education by doing so.

For ten years Akshaya Patra has worked to provide underprivileged children in India with freshly cooked, nutritious food. Our mission now is to serve 5 million (50 lakh) children by 2020.

When to Donate?
A special gift to give the people you love is donating to charity on their behalf. You could donate on birthdays, anniversaries, festivals or in memory of a loved one. This simple gesture will not only light up their day, but also help a child in need.

Many of Akshaya Patra’s donors also sponsor a child on a regular basis either monthly, quarterly or annually. Their kindness has helped us to reach out to those 1.2 million children in 8 states and 18 locations across India. Join us now and make a difference.

EAGLE LIFE STORY INTERESTING...................

The story of the eagle

The eagle has the longest life-span among birds.

In its 40’s…..It’s long and flexible talons can no longer grab prey which serves as food.

It’s long and sharp beak becomes bent.

Then, the eagle is left with only two options: die or go through a painful process of change which lasts 150 days.

The process requires that the eagle fly to a mountain top and sit on its’ nest.

There the eagle knocks its’ beak against a rock until it plucks it out.

After plucking it out, the eagle will wait for a new beak to grow back and then it will pluck out its’ talons.

When its’ new talons grow back, the eagle starts plucking its old-aged feathers.

And after five months, the eagle takes its’ famous flight of rebirth and lives for 30 more years.

Why is change needed? Many times, in order to survive we have to start a change process. We sometimes need to get rid of old memories habits and other past limiting beliefs.

Only freed from past burdens, can we take advantage of the present. Our lives are not determined by what happens to us but by how we react to what happens, not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life.

A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst, a spark that creates extraordinary results. Let’s change to make a change!!!
