AstraZeneca is proud to announce its collaboration with The Akshaya Patra Foundation and become a part of the Foundation’s nationwide Daan Utsav celebration – Each One, Feed One. We launched the transformative partnership with the Foundation three years ago to support the mid-day meals of government school children. These children hail from challenging socioeconomic backgrounds, but it does not dampen their spirit to strive for their big dreams.
Last year in collaboration with Akshaya Patra, we served 6,95,156 mid-day meals to government school children to reinforce their pursuit of a better future. Our collective goal, powered by the conscious efforts of our employees, is to support as many children as possible this year.

The Akshaya Patra Foundation is a proud implementing partner of the government’s flagship PM POSHAN programme to improve children’s nutrition profile and bring them closer to education. While the cooking cost, including raw materials and fuel, is reimbursed by the Central and state governments, funds required towards other aspects of the programme, such as distribution and administrative expenses, are sourced by the Foundation from the donors. Working with the government and donors, Akshaya Patra has been successful in making the programme a trusted, respected and appreciated public-private partnership in the social sector.
