What can you do with a grand amount of 750 INR (app 13 USD)?
Get a new pair of Jeans? How about those new goggles? What about a drink with friends over weekend? Or maybe order in a pizza? catch the latest Blockbuster? I bet, most of these will end up costing you much more than 750 rupees.
Now tell me, can you once a year skip any of these aforementioned events? Doesn't seem a biggie no? But wait it can make or break a child's life! No am not kidding.....
For a mere 750 rupees, Akshayapatra can feed a child for one whole academic year! Maybe its the promise of this one full meals that's making your maid send her child to the school! Maybe that's the only nutritious meal that child has through the day! Maybe that humble meal is the only thing the child has to look forward to through the day? Maybe this lure for food may see hm through school and help him break the vicious bond of poverty?
Can you afford to keep aside just 750 rupees for a child in a year? Considering Akshayapatra has been in this business for quite a while now, I think we can rest assured that our money will reach safe hands.......
Or maybe you could Blog To Feed A Child - For every blog entry, BlogAdda will feed an Akshaya Patra beneficiary for an entire year! I nominate Pheno, Pixie, Museum Piece, Ishithaa to take this forward......
I am going to #BlogToFeedAChild with Akshaya Patra and BlogAdda.Are you?
