Sponsor for an NGO for Children and Build
a Better Society

Childhood is a time meant mainly for learning and playing. However, in India, many parents
often struggle to take care of their little ones and provide the basic necessities needed during
the early stages of their growth, including a good education and a healthy diet.
Education is one of the prime factors required for growth and development of the country.
India has come a long way since acquiring independence and the overall outlook of the nation
has undergone drastic changes over the past few years. However, we are yet to achieve 100%
literacy rate and still stand at 74.04%. This has been one of the main factors preventing India
from becoming a developed nation. But the situation is far better than what it was used to be
in 1947, when only 12% of the population was literate. A major part of this success can be
attributed to different Government and non-Government organisations, particularly NGO for
children like AkshayaPatra. This not-for-profit organisation established in 2000 with a vision of
eradicating classroom hunger, has helped reduce school dropout rates in rural areas. The
organisation, which started with just 1,500 Government school children, now, feeds over 1.4
million students across the country. Online donations have been one of the main sources of
income which allowed the organisation to serve those in need.

The Mid-Day Meal Programme run by AkshayaPatra has thus brought hopes to millions of
children who are otherwise forced to sacrifice their education and take up huge responsibilities
at a young age. The NGO for children, all these years, has been trying hard to ensure that no
child remains hungry during school hours. The Foundation serves mid-day meals to students
studying in different government and Government-aided schools in 10 states, mainly Karnataka,
Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Telangana, Chhattisgarh, Uttar Pradesh, Tamil
Nadu and Assam.
Efforts taken up by the organisation have always received wide support and encouragement
from different parts of the world. Supporting the cause is not at all a difficult affair, particularly
when the organisation accepts online donations.
Interestingly, these donations through online can bring some benefits to the donors also.
Donating online through AkshayaPatra can help save the tax. If you are an Indian, contributing
just ₹ 500 can get you 100% tax exemption. The Non-Governmental Organization for children
also offers a wide range of options and flexibility to the donors. They can choose between
sponsoring either one child a year by paying ₹ 750 or three children a year by paying ₹ 2250 or
more children by paying more.
