My name is Aneesh Peri. I am 17 years old and a Grade 12 student at Phoenix Greens School of Learning, Hyderabad

Every day, millions of children in India attend school on an empty stomach, struggling to focus while battling hunger. The Akshaya Patra Mid-Day Meal Scheme is a powerful initiative that tackles this crisis head-on. By providing nutritious, freshly cooked meals to schoolchildren from underprivileged communities, Akshaya Patra ensures that no child has to choose between hunger and education.

This simple meal is life-changing. It not only fills empty stomachs but also encourages consistent school attendance, thereby enhancing academic performance, and boosts self-esteem. For countless families living in poverty, knowing that their child will receive a healthy meal at school reduces financial burdens and motivates them to prioritize education over child labor or early marriage.

But this noble cause needs your support. My fundraiser is dedicated to helping Akshaya Patra continue its mission of feeding dreams and building brighter futures. Just ₹1500 can feed a child for an entire academic year (232 meals). Imagine the difference your contribution can make; a child well-fed, educated, and hopeful.

I urge you to be a part of this movement. Your donation, no matter how big or small, directly transforms lives. Together, we can break the vicious cycle of poverty and hunger, one meal and one child at a time.

Donate today and feed futures. Join me in supporting the Akshaya Patra Mid-Day Meal Scheme.
