EKAM UK Partners with Annapoorna Trust in Karnataka state
EKAM UK is a charitable organization created in 2017 with a mission of saving the lives of babies, children, and young mothers. They are support projects in the UK and India, working with NGOs, not-for-profit establishments, medical centres, and other organizations that share similar values. In line with its mission to protect the lives of infants, children, and young mothers, EKAM UK has partnered with the Sri Sathya Sai Annapoorna Trust to provide essential Morning Nutrition to government schoolchildren in Karnataka.
Project Insights
As part of the initiative for the academic year 2024–25, approximately 3,206 children across 49 schools in the Kodagu district were selected to benefit from the program. Under this collaboration, the children received SaiSure Millet Multi nutrient health mix along with milk, served on alternate school days, totalling around 110 nutrition days for the year.
Many children arrive at government schools on an empty stomach, which directly affects their ability to focus and learn. By offering a nourishing start to the day, this initiative addresses hidden classroom hunger, enhances concentration, and makes a meaningful contribution to the holistic development of India’s future generation.
The Sri Sathya Sai Annapoorna Trust, in partnership with the Government of Karnataka, has been leading such efforts across India, ensuring that no child is deprived of learning due to a lack of nutrition.
Conclusion
The partnership between EKAM UK and the Sri Sathya Sai Annapoorna Trust is an example of how collaborative efforts can create a lasting impact in the lives of children. Addressing morning hunger through effective nutritional interventions strengthens the foundation for a brighter, more educated future.
With shared values and a common purpose, EKAM UK and Annapoorna Trust are helping build a healthier and more empowered generation.
