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’.
