Every donation made to Akshaya Patra will be matched, until 17th June. 1 in every 4 children in London is going hungry. Akshaya Patra’s Hot Meals and Homework programme addresses this urgent need by providing nutritious after-school meals and academic support.

Our vision is that no child should be deprived of education because of poverty and hunger.

We are building a movement of people who – working together with compassion, generosity and determination – are ensuring that a growing number of disadvantaged children can eat well, make the most of their education, and realise their full potential.
