| Support feeding children on this children's day |
Children
are the future of a nation as they grow up to become responsible leaders and
future citizens. To grow into great citizens and make the nation proud, every
child must dream and stick to the hope of success. Children’s day is celebrated
on 14th November every year as a mark of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru’s birth
anniversary. As he believed that every child needs to be appreciated for their
being and growth, his birthday is celebrated to appreciate every child of India.
Each child has a charm and the ability to achieve their goal; their skills and
talents must be encouraged at the right time with the right guidance. This
helps them have a happy and cheerful childhood. Every child’s dream is like a
growing seed for a sustainable future that needs to be nourished and catered to
achieve great heights. Top NGOs in India and individuals come together on
various occasions to support children. They take care of their education,
health, well-beings, nutrition, shelter, physical development, etc.
The reality today
Life is
sometimes unfortunate and leads to misfortunes, not all children of the nation
receive equal happiness. Some lose homes, parents and other livelihood needs at
a very early age. This hampers their childhood in many ways. It leads to
poverty, hunger and lack of education.
Among 1.380 billion people, children make 28.6%
of the population. Out of which, 23 million children are deprived of basic
amenities of life.
To ensure
that every child gets an equal and right opportunity, top NGOs in India, Central
and State Governments and other organisations engage and strive towards
achieving their needs. Every child has the potential to build skills and root
for their desires and happiness. As few children have the privilege to access
every need, top NGOs in India build foundations for such children. Apart from such
NGOs for children, individuals volunteer to donate and help children with their
contributions.
Children
are like the hidden stars of the sky. They appear when the sky is clearer. For
them to appear and shine bright in life, they must be provided with clear paths
with less hardship and accessible opportunities.
Did you know? Children deprived of the right nutrition account for 30% of the Indian population.
Donate for children’s unlimited food and education
Food and nutrition
are the essential requirements for a child’s healthy life. In India, more than
9.2 lakh children suffer from malnutrition. In 2000, the Supreme Court mandated
that every child must receive a definite proportion of calories in the form of middaymeals, that includes proteins, vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, water, and fibre,
proportional to their age. Since food helps and keeps the child active and
healthy, it is necessary to provide every child with the right amount of food
at the right time. Midday meals ensure a balanced diet in children which
enhances a healthy living. To serve proper meals to the children deprived of
nutritional needs, NGOs dedicate themselves to their service. They strive
towards helping these children meet their dreams. With the help of Government
programmes and schemes, NGOs deliver the privilege to certain sections of
children who cannot afford a healthy meal.
Children’sDay is a one-day celebration that lasts until the sun sets; the next day is
again a dark harsh reality for children deprived of essential needs. It is
important to address these needs and necessities every day. As Children’s day
is an important day to every child, it is an opportunity for us as their
well-wishers to think about their problems and solve the same. It is essential to
celebrate this day for their benefit. The Akshaya Patra Foundation serves mid-day
meals to Government school-going children irrespective of celebration and
festival days. Children’s Day is an auspicious occasion to join hands with the
organization to donate for children and feed them.
