Financial Struggle Amidst Medical Crisis: A Parent's Heartfelt Journey
“My son is admitted here for kidney stone treatment costing around ₹15,000, which I can't afford. I borrowed money for treatment, but daily travel from Mankhud to the hospital is expensive. I can't travel by train, so I take a bus or autorickshaw, which adds to the cost. I can't afford restaurant food or go home for lunch, so I skip meals, making me weak."
Relieved by Akshaya Chaitanya's Free Lunch Service: A Father's Story of Gratitude and Hope
“When my wife was admitted to the hospital for the delivery of our second child, I didn't know what to feed our 9-year-old son, Yash. I can't cook and can't afford restaurant food, so we depended on street food like vada pav. I was happy about our second child but worried about Yash's health due to the unhealthy diet. When I heard about Akshaya Chaitanya’s free lunch service, I was relieved to feed him a good, nutritious lunch."
Sole Breadwinner's Daily Struggle: Alcoholism and Financial Hardship
“Her mother is a housewife and her father is a construction worker and the sole breadwinner of the family, earning somewhere between 300-400 rupees a day. As an alcoholic he spends most of his daily earnings on alcohol, which leaves the family to fend for themselves. He takes back home barely enough to survive a hand to mouth life. ”
Struggling in Subhas Nagar: A Family's Journey for Survival
“She lives with her grandmother in an overcrowded slum called Subhas Nagar located in Jogeshwari, Mumbai. Her parents work in Amravati as sugarcane harvesting workers to make their ends meet. They travel to many places all over Maharashtra just to earn their daily bread. Finding work is a difficult task for them at times.”
Relief Beyond Treatment: Nourishment, Comfort, and Care Every Day
“Apart from treatment, we have to spend on medicine, food, and travel too. Each day, we spend around ₹150 for breakfast and dinner. No matter what challenges come by during the day, the free food I receive at lunch time takes away all my stress. At least, this is one time during the day when I can relax and have a homely meal without having to think how much it would cost. And every bite of this meal makes me feel happy and cared for.”
Recognizing the Invisible Heroes: A Call for Compassion Towards Delivery Personnel
"A delivery man braves the hot sun, gets drenched in merciless rain, and manoeuvres his way through chaotic traffic, just so that we receive our packages at our desired address. Yet, we don’t have a moment of compassion for them. And if he happens to meet with an accident, neither he has dispensable money for treatment nor finds anyone offering help! In addition, loses his regular income too."
Despite Health Challenges, Bright Madrasa Student Cherishes Childhood Moments
"He is a student of the Madrasa near his home. He has many friends in the neighbourhood and loves to play with them. He enjoys watching cartoons, and listening to stories from his mother. He is a bright student in the eyes of his teacher. But contrary to his will, he has to miss school at least twice a week and also misses playing with his friends regularly because of his health conditions."

The Power of charity for school children
Studies have shown that children who eat healthy breakfast regularly tend to have better attention spans than those who skip breakfast. Additionally, a well-balanced breakfast sets the day for a healthy eating schedule and regulates hormones. After long hours of sleep, children need to eat carbohydrate and protein-rich meals to fuel their brains for a cerebrally activated day.
By donating food for school children with healthy breakfasts attending Municipal Schools in Mumbai, we make sure that our efforts go beyond addressing immediate hunger needs. We’ve worked hard to prepare a Sattvic, Nutritious and Millet-based menu that is cooked under strict protocols to maintain hygiene. Access to a balanced breakfast through Bal Shiksha Ahar ensures that children receive essential nutrients important for their developing bodies and minds.
To contribute to the cause you can donate to municipal schools and help us in reaching out to many more people in need.
Why donate to Municipal schools
Municipal Schools in Mumbai onboard children from extremely poor families and these children are severely malnourished. They come to school on an empty stomach and are really tired and lack the focus to study. They are also very low on physical stamina and owing to these reasons there is a high absentee rate amongst lower grades & high drop out rates amongst students of 8 - 10th grade. Akshaya Chaitanya provides breakfast meals to children from 1st to 8th grade & lunch meals to students for 9th & 10th grade students across 104 Municipal Schools of Mumbai. Donate for breakfast of municipal school children to enable them study better and break from the shackles of poverty.
Charity to schools is the biggest support that can be offered for the overall growth & development of the nation. Donating for breakfast can help eradicate classroom hunger, improve in-class attendance and charity for school children helps in their overall mental & physical development.
How to donate food to school online?
At Akshaya Chaitanya, we serve more than 6000 meals a day across 104 Municipal Schools. In case you are wondering how to donate food to municipal schools, then you can do so by making an online donation. You can donate to school of your choice and experience the joy of serving the children yourself.
Spread the Word
If you’ve made up your mind to give food to the poor by making an online donation, spread the word by posting it online and letting people know about the food donation. Share about your donation on social media and leverage your network online. You can inspire many more people to donate food to the poor which can make a significant impact on the lives of the unfortunate.
The Impact of Food Donation to the Poor
You address the immediate need for sustenance when you donate food to the poor directly. Having a nutritious meal becomes a lifeline for people who are struggling for every bite. Proper meals provide the vulnerable crowd with a fundamental human right- dignity.
Donating food to the poor emerges as a beacon of hope in a world where the gap between abundance and scarcity is stark. The power lies in our collective ability to make a positive impact and that is what we do at Akshaya Chaitanya. We not only donate food to the poor but we give them hope and the promise of a better tomorrow.
