Noida, India – The Chetu Foundation, the non-profit entity of global software solutions and support services provider Chetu, today announced that it has donated $60,000 to the Akshaya Patra Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to ending classroom hunger in India.
The donation will support Akshaya Patra's mission of providing free, nutritious mid-day meals to children in government schools across India. More than 200 million children in India face classroom hunger, leading to poor classroom attendance, inability to focus, and poor academics.
"We understand the gravity of school hunger," said Shaili Bansal, Executive Director of the Chetu Foundation. "Akshaya Patra, the world's largest secular school lunch program, aligns with our mission to provide humanitarian aid and education for the next generation. This cannot happen if the kids are starving at school because hungry children struggle to focus — school meals may be their only nutritious food of the day. Many parents send their children to school solely because of the daily meal, which results in the children receiving a healthy meal and an education, as well.
