Akshaya Patra’s Campaign Observing the National Nutrition Month

Joining the country in observing the National Nutrition Month, The Akshaya Patra Foundation has started an Outreach Campaign on the critical cause of addressing hunger and malnutrition. As a part of this campaign, conscientious citizens are being encouraged to sign pledge cards committing to ‘no wastage of food’ and support under-served people by feeding them.

The signed pledge-cards will be sent to the Prime Minister’s Office to express the collective commitment and request the Hon’ble Prime Minister to take up the topic, ‘ensuring access to nutrition for all’ in the upcoming ‘Mann ki Baat.’ As of now, over 15,000 signed pledge cards have been sent to the office of Hon’ble Prime Minister. We are reaching out to more supporters for this campaign.

Himachal Pradesh CM Jai Ram Thakur; Uttarakhand CM Trivendra Singh Rawat; Vasudev Devnani and Shri. Arvind Pandey, the Education Ministers of Rajasthan and Uttarakhand respectively; Chef Sanjeev Kapoor; Mohit Anand – Managing Director, Kellogg’s India & South Asia; and several other personalities have extended support to the campaign by taking the pledge.
