THE AKSHAYA PATRA FOUNDATION<br />

A dream come true, indeed<br />

The <strong>Akshaya</strong> <strong>Patra</strong> Foundation’s birth springs from a story<br />

of compassion, which sowed the seeds for a higher purpose.<br />

One day, while looking out of a window at Mayapur, a village near<br />

Kolkata, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada saw<br />

a group of children fighting with street dogs over scraps of food.<br />

This moving incident led to a resolve that- No one within a ten mile<br />

radius of our centre should go hungry. In pursuit of this resolution,<br />

The <strong>Akshaya</strong> <strong>Patra</strong> Foundation set forth on its journey beginning in<br />

June 2000, in the service of children with the conscientious vision<br />

that ‘No child in India shall be deprived<br />

of education because of hunger’.
