This Black Friday Give Back Friday, turn the world’s biggest shopping week into a week of giving.

Black Friday celebrates buying. Give Back Friday celebrates giving — and your generosity can bring a nutritious meal to a child who learns on an empty stomach.
We serve 8,500+ daily millet-powered meals to Balwadi children (3–5 yrs) and secondary students (9th–10th)—age groups that receive no government meal support.

No safety net. No mid-day meal. Just children trying to learn on empty stomachs.

This Give Back Friday, let’s tell every child:

“You deserve nourishment.
You deserve dignity.
You deserve a fair start in life.”

Turn a day of discounts into a day of compassion.
Let’s build a future with ZERO Classroom Hunger.

Why Give Back Friday Matters

✅ 1 meal = sharper focus
✅ 1 full stomach = one more day of learning
✅ 1 small act = a lifetime of possibilities

No Black Friday bargain is more powerful than a child learning without hunger.

Make Your Give Back Friday Count

Your contribution doesn’t just feed hunger — it fuels learning, health, and hope.

Your Contribution | You Provide
₹25 → 1 healthy meal
₹750 → Nourishment for 1 month
₹9,000 → Nourishment for 1 year

This Give Back Friday, skip the impulse buys.
Give something that lasts longer than any deal — a meal that shapes a future.

Because a nourished child today becomes a stronger India tomorrow.
