Throughout his life my dad always fought for the underdog and thought of those in need, it feels fitting to use this opportunity to remember other families who have also been impacted by coronavirus, in his memory. If you are able to please support the work of The Akshaya Patra Foundation.

As the COVID-19 crisis continues to loom over us, The Government of India has taken a strict combat measure by directing a lockdown of the entire nation. At this great hour of need, The Akshaya Patra Foundation, in close coordination with State Governments & District Administration, has stepped in to provide relief by providing food to thousands of people across the country.
