We have all dreamt of living in a utopian world- free from hunger, poverty, and disease. Being a philanthropist, I have always wished for the power to make the world a better place to live. Little did I know, this power already resides in each of us. All we need is to attempt an act of giving and sharing to touch the lives of many and help the less fortunate lead a better life. In addition to understanding the importance of giving, it is essential to know how to donate money to NGOs that benefits the poor and the needy in the best possible manner. When you donate to food NGOs in India , you lend a significant helping hand in uprooting hunger and bringing child welfare to underprivileged communities with limited resources. By contributing to an NGO like Annamrita, which works relentlessly to provide mid-day meals in schools, you can improve the state of health, nutrition, and education for children in India. Taking the right step ahead is all we need to achieve much-needed socio-eco...

With the existence of nonprofits and non-governmental organizations (NGOs), it becomes quite smooth and manageable to raise funds for the needy and other social causes. However, there are multiple challenges being faced by these organizations, whether it’s about trust issues or lack of proper knowledge of the right technology to reach the corporate donors. Maintaining transparency in the internal operations of the NGOs is not possible in most cases and this often leads to a level of mistrust amongst donors.

NGOs work hard to help the needy in order to fulfill their honorable and moral objectives, but they frequently face accus...

We have been associated with an NGO named Annamrita Foundation for the last 5 years. They are a Non-Government charitable organization providing mid-day meals in schools across 14 different cities in India since the last 17 years to uproot hunger in children depriving them of their right to education.  Our executives have participated in many meal donation drives and distributed healthy, nutritious and hygienic meals to the poor and backward and nourished the dream of a hunger-free India.  From my experience, CSR has many benefits for businesses regardless of its size or sector.

The mid-day meal program was introduced as a part of the National Programme of Nutritional Support to Primary Education on August 15, 1995. However, the roots of this school meal program may be linked back to the pre-independence era, when the British administration decided to devise measures to assist underprivileged students. Today, the scheme's main goals are to provide nutritional support to children in elementary school, promote school enrolment, and combat hunger and malnutrition. Food security, the shortage of nutritious food in rural areas, and access to education are always high on the priority list. This is why the Indian government came up with the concept of a midday meal programme. The goal is to provide healthy meals to children in the lower and higher primary grades.
