One of the many ways to get involved with the mid-day meal programme of The Akshaya
Patra Foundation is by donating meal delivery vans. It is a great aid for
transporting fresh mid-day meals to
children. Many corporate and individual donors have come forward to donate meal
delivery vehicles to the Foundation. Recently, DHL Express donated three
delivery vans to The Akshaya Patra Foundation that were flagged off at the
NGO’s H.K. Hill kitchen premise on 20 August, 2015. DHL Express is one of the
popular logistics company. The flag off
ceremony of the mid-day meal
vehicles was attended by R. S. Subramanian,
SVP & Country Manager, DHL Express India, Chanchalapathi Dasa,
Vice-Chairman, The Akshaya Patra
Foundation and Shridhar Venkat, CEO, The Akshaya Patra Foundation.
These
vehicles have been customised as per the Foundation’s standard of a honeycomb
interior to prevent food spillage and insulated body to retain temperature of
the freshly cooked meals. The three vehicles will be utilised to transport
mid-day meals to 18 schools thereby it benefits more than 2,500 children.
Donate to charity and
partake in providing nutritious meals and ending classroom hunger.
