Rise Against Hunger Supports Annapoorna Trust with Essential Food Supplies – 2024
Rise Against Hunger is a nonprofit organization with a vision of a ‘World without Hunger’. They focus on Nourishing Lives, Empowering Communities, and Responding to Emergencies.
Rise Against Hunger & The Annapoorna Trust are closely aligned in visions and objectives, sharing common synergies.
As an organization, they are recognized for supplying fortified rice and essential pulses and have been a key supporter of Annapoorna Trust for the past 4 to 5 years. Previously, similar events have been held in collaboration with companies such as Apple, FactSet, JP Morgan and other Corp partners.
Originally established to aid communities affected by natural calamities, Rise Against Hunger expanded its reach to support below-poverty-line families by supplying raw food materials.
Each package typically includes 1 kg of rice, half a kg of pulses, and is fortified with nutritional powders. One box holds 36 packages, with each package offering 6 meals. Altogether, this equates to 216 meals. 100 boxes can serve up to 21,600 meals.
This packing is done by corporate employees as part of their volunteering programs. These supplies are later cooked by the beneficiaries or used in meal preparation by organizations like the Annapoorna Trust.
In our partnership with Rise Against Hunger, every package gets distributed by Annapoorna Trust to Government schools & patients of Sai Swasthya Wellness Centres in districts of Nizamabad, Siddipet, Kumuram Bheem Asifabad, and Jagtial in Telangana state. This is a gift of nutritious meals for children & patients. This collaboration has allowed the Trust to extend the reach and impact over the years.
This collaborative effort highlights the impact of partnerships in tackling crucial social issues and the importance of providing Nutrition to every child & a patient in need. These initiatives mark a significant step forward in the fight against hunger and malnutrition, offering essential support to those in need.
Such event exemplifies the impactful collaboration between corporate entities and NGOs, demonstrating how they can work together to make a tangible difference in the lives of children and ensure a brighter, healthier future for the next generation.
