Madhu Pandit Dasa, our chairman, looked back on ten years of The Akshaya Patra Foundation:

“One thing is certain from this experience: there is boundless compassion in this world. We must involve more and more willing human hearts. I wish to see many more people come forward to help those less fortunate. There are millions of children around the globe in need of their support. Their smiles will transform our lives.”

Disaster always calls for urgent measures. At times like this the country stands up to support those stricken by the tragedy and often support pours in from all corners. On the other hand, this is also a time, when people want to help but don’t know how or where to contribute and help. A fair section of those who give at this time end up getting disappointed, as they never hear about what happened to their money. That’s where organizations like ours step in to make a difference.
