Intro to socialEntrpreneur FEEDING INDIA: Feeding India is a youth run not for profit organization working to end Hunger and MalnutritionToday, Feeding India works in more than 45 cities of India with 7,500+ volunteers and has served 8.5 million meals to people in need. Feeding India is a not-for-profit social enterprise which aims to connect two major social problems today: Hunger and Food waste as solutions for each other. We tackle these by channelizing excess food from individuals, weddings, restaurants, corporate offices to the people who really need it and have no means or access food. Our belief is that we do not need to create new food to feed the less privileged, but to simply direct the extra food which is already created. We also tackle the problem at its roots, where we encourage people not to waste food at all.
- 4. Intro to socialentrepreneur PART 2 FEEDING INDIA:It all started when Ankit Kawatra, the founder of Feeding India attended a grand wedding where there were 10,000 people invited and 35+ cuisines. He wondered what would happen to so much food and decided to stay back. Ankit witnessed heaps of excess food being sent straight to the bin which could have fed 5000+ people just that night. At 22, he quit his well-paying job and a growing career at an MNC to do something which he felt is more important- making India a hunger and food-waste free nation. Ankit is one of those people who wants to create a difference in the world. They work to end hunger and malnutrition in India by providing food to vulnerable people. A major portion of what they do is redistributing good extra food to people in need. Feeding India works to preserve the childhood of the children and ensure that their health, education and social learning is not compromised due to inadequacies related to food. These individuals are the future of our country and the maximum learning that takes place during the early years should be capitalized. They must collectively ensure that people with disabilities do not feel socially excluded, or categorized. If people should not be discriminated on grounds of caste, religion, etc., they should also not be ill treated if they have disabilities. Key beneficiaries :Children - Below the Age of 18 years,Specially Abled Individuals,Old Age Citizens

Rise against hunger(intro) RiseAgainst Hunger is an international hunger relief organization that distributes food and life-changing aid to the world’s most vulnerable, mobilizing the necessary resources to end hunger by 2030. Since their founding in 1998, Rise Against Hunger has grown exponentially — and the ways in which they seek to end hunger continue to evolve. From the implementation of sustainable community development projects to their meal packaging program that harnesses the passion of local volunteers, they strive to make a global impact on hunger by building resilience, self-sufficiency and empowerment among the communities they work in and with. Rise Against Hunger bolsters agricultural production and incomes through programs promoting improved agricultural methods, business skills, and market access. With training and access to quality seeds and fertilizers, farmers can increase production and harvest a variety of nutritious crops. By supporting the establishment of fish and livestock production, they also provide pathways to diversifying diets and improving nutritional outcomes. For those who do not grow their own food, income is a key determinant in being food secure — through income generating activities they help individuals increase their earning potential and thus their consistent access to food.

- 9. History and impactof their venture(rise against hunger In 1998, envisioning a world without hunger, Ray Buchanan — a United Methodist minister — founded Stop Hunger Now. In 2017, Stop Hunger Now rebranded to become Rise Against Hunger. After enlisting as a U.S. Marine during the Vietnam War, Ray Buchanan quickly recognized that accomplishing a mission required “commitment to something larger than yourself.” Driving Rise Against Hunger’s work is the recognition that ending hunger is more than just feeding people, which led Rise Against Hunger to focus its feeding programs in areas where we can have a real impact and expand its hunger-fighting programs beyond meal packaging and distribution.(impact)Everyone on the planet has the right to the nutrition necessary to live life to his or her full potential. Since our founding in 1998, Rise Against Hunger has grown exponentially — and the ways in which we seek to end hunger continue to evolve. From the implementation of sustainable community development projects to our meal packaging program that harnesses the passion of local volunteers, they strive to make a global impact on hunger by building resilience, self-sufficiency and empowerment among the communities They work in and with. Here are a few examples of how we are approaching this goal.While long-term food security projects take root, vulnerable families and individuals still need to meet their basic needs today. Rise Against Hunger supports safety net programs that provide nourishment as well as additional skills training or services that support the difficult journey out of poverty. Their volunteer-packaged meals support children’s attendance at school, incentivize adults to learn a new trade or bolster clinic patients’ health in order to bring about holistic and transformational development in each of their lives.
