Annapoorna Trust’s association with FAI began from the year 2019. Since then, there has been no looking back. The collaboration has grown in time and has resulted in the yeoman service to the downtrodden and poor. FAI leverages its CSR contribution in the fields of education, healthcare, employability, livelihood enhancement, etc.
During the year 2023-24, FAI, under its Light a Life – A First American (India) Foundation, has partnered with Annapoorna Trust in providing morning nutrition to Government school children in Chikkaballapur and Ramanagara districts of Karnataka, and in Hyderabad.
On 2nd December 2023, around 40 employees from the FAI Hyderabad office visited Devnar Blind School, Hyderabad. The children were served SaiSure Peanut Chikki by the team. The team then kept the children entertained by conducting games like General Knowledge Quiz and Antakshari, and showing their talents like dancing, telling movie dialogues, and involving them in conversations about their future ambitions. This quality time was followed by serving SaiSure Malt Multi Nutrient Health Mix with milk along with multigrain cookies to the children.

On 9th December 2023, 30 employees from FAI visited Ramasandra Government School in Kengeri. They spent quality time with the children by involving them, starting with an intro speech, then into singing, games like lemon and spoon, musical chair, kho-kho, dog and bone, fire in the mountain, and so on. The employees conveyed their thanks for this Morning Nutrition intervention and said the quality time spent during the day largely relieved their stress.
Mr. Sushanth Karanth – Corporate Communications Manager, Mr. B S Sai Bhaskar – Partner Relationship Manager, and Mr. Anil Lingayat – Senior Executive Operations from Annapoorna Trust were present.
Employee volunteering activities are great opportunities for an individual to participate in the welfare of the community. Spending quality time with children is of prime importance as it strengthens their deep emotional connection, building higher self-esteem, positive behaviour, good health, and well-being, thereby fostering them to be good citizens of the country.
