This Children’s Day, let’s nourish a million dreams!

What if the greatest Children’s Day gift was not toys or chocolates, but the energy to learn, dream, and shine?

At Bal Shiksha Ahara, we make that possible very single morning!


We provide 8,500+ daily millet-powered meals to Balwadi children (3–5 years) and secondary students (9th–10th grade)—age groups that receive no government meal support.

No aid. No backup. Just children trying to learn on empty stomachs.

We make sure hunger doesn’t steal their future.

This Children’s Day, join us in telling every child:
“You deserve to learn. You deserve to thrive. You deserve a full plate and a bright future.”

Together, let’s create a world with ZERO Classroom Hunger.

Why it matters

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

No poetry is stronger than a child who learns without hunger.

Make their Children’s Day memorable

Your gift feeds more than children — it feeds dreams.
