This is a PowerPoint of a place I visited in India with Primary Source, a global institute in Watertown, MA.

The only way to be grateful for having all that we have is by helping those in need. Several NGOs in India are the living models of this ideology that work selflessly for making a difference to someone’s life.

By means of charity fundraising or tax deductible donations, millions of donors around the world help top NGOs such as Akshaya Patra in solving the problem of hunger. This is not a problem of just a handful of countries anymore. Everyone around the world is liable to solve it.

Hunger problem a brief for a global crisis (1)Vikas Monga
Hunger, according to science, humanitarian aid, and social sciences, is a condition in which a person, for a sustained period, is unable to eat sufficient food to meet basic nutritional needs.
It has been 16 years since Akshaya Patra swore to combat hunger and malnutrition among school children. While we are pleased to have served 2 billion meals so far, let us take a quick look at our journey in Karnataka!
1. Civics in India
The “Rights” of Children
(an integration of literacy, science and social studies)
By Marcy Prager – marcyprager@mac.com
July, 2011
2. What is Civics?
Civics is a person’s rights and duties
as a citizen.
What rights do you have at home?
What duties do you have at home?
What rights do you have in school?
What duties do you have in school?
3. Childrens’ Rights
Every child in America has basic rights:
the right to be protected, to be safe from harm
the right to get an education
the chance to express yourself and be heard
the right to good health care
the right of basic needs of nourishment, clothing and housing
the right not to be exploited.
4. “My Civil Rights”-
Cartoon
You have a lot of “prior knowledge” of your own
“civil rights” as a child, living your life on a day-
to-day basis.
Take a large piece of white construction paper and
fold it into six equal and fair boxes. In each
box, depict one new “civil right” you have
practiced, using you, your family members, your
teachers, or your friends as the main characters.
5. The United Nations Convention
on the Rights of the Child
Twenty years ago, the United Nations wrote down
the basic rights that all children, boy or girl, healthy
or ill, black or white, rich or poor, with different
kinds of families and different abilities, must have.
This is an agreement between all the countries.
India, too has signed this agreement.
6. Many Children in India Still
Do Not Have These Rights
Many children in India are not experiencing these
rights.
Many children beg in the city streets for money.
Many children do not go to school.
Many children are exploited.
Many children are malnourished.
40 million children in India work as child laborers.
7. Not every child in India has the
“right” to a good education.
Many children in India who do get a chance to go to
school go to government-run schools which are
often dirty.
Many children are not taught well. They don’t have
books or toys or math manipulatives to use as they
solve problems.
Most families do not have the money to send their
children to better schools.
Many children do not know how to read or write.
8. Working Together to Fix
the Problem
Civics is when people have a
shared problem and get together
to try and solve the problem.
Many people in India want to
ensure the rights of all children.
9. Good Nutrition is a Child’s Right
Famous author Pearl S. Buck wrote,
“Food for all is a necessity. Food should not be a
merchandise, to be bought and sold as jewels are
bought and sold by those who have the money to
buy. Food is a human necessity, like water and air, it
should be available.”
10. Akshaya Patra
The Akshaya Patra foundation was established by
the Hari Krishna movement to “ensure that no child
is deprived of education because of hunger.”
A group of caring individuals got together to start
a foundation that would help
poor, underprivileged families, ensuring that their
children would be fed healthy, nutritious meals in
government schools.

12. The Akshaya Patra’s
Beliefs
A mid-day meal program will increase school
enrollment.
Nutritious foods will will reduce or decrease
school dropouts.
Students who are well fed will have the energy to
do well in school.
Good technology will provide high quality
nutrition at a low cost.
13. Centralized Sterile
Kitchens
Corporate partners, the government, and donors
throughout the world are sponsoring the kitchens
that provide high quality nutrition and a low cost to
schools that are in need.
These centralized sterile kitchens are now feeding
over 10,000,000 children all over India.
In Jaipur alone, 150,000 children are fed every
day!
14. A Kitchen in Jaipur
I was blessed as I entered Akshaya Patra’s kitchen in Jaipur.
15. Our Guide for the Morning
This is one of the directors of the Akshaya’s Patra’s Program in Jaipur.
38. An agriculture company helps support 15 acres of
farming land to provide nutritional vegetables of the
mid-day meal for 1,400 government schools in Jaipur.
62. “Nutritious Foods for
Tummies and Minds”
This is a six word story of the Akshaya Patra Non-Profit Organization –
Unlimited food for education.
