FAQ's

Akshaya Patra is taking Child Hunger head-on and is currently the world's largest mid-day meal provider in the world. TAPF serves hot meals to 1.8M school children every day in India, changing lives, families and communities in infinite ways. In the UK, we have been serving since 2019 and have worked with many councils in London including Harrow, Brent, Tower Hamlets, Southwark, Lambeth, et al., to serve children. Our first UK facility opened in Watford in October 2020 and has the capacity to prepare fresh, nutritionally optimised, vegetarian meals at scale.
The challenge could be anything you wish to try. 'Miles' is a metaphor to suggest you are pushing yourself to do more. So for example, if you are going to meditate for an hour a day for 30 days, you are still a Miles for Meals Champion for Akshaya Patra. Similarly, if you walk your dog or jump - those are miles too.
You know your limit. And each person's minimum and the maximum is different from the other. So set your own target and deadline. We only focus on helping you achieve your target.
Yes, of course, everyone is welcome!
