It was a pleasure to spend the evening with you, Tri-State.

On October 3, our community gathered in East Rutherford for the Akshaya Patra USA Tri-State Gala. Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN’s Chief Medical Correspondent, joined us as keynote speaker.

We were glad to have our Vice Chairman Dr. Rachana Kulkarni and Board Member Roopa Makhija with us, alongside Rahul Merchant, Rakesh Kamdar of our National Advisory Board. Shridhar Venkat, CEO of The Akshaya Patra Foundation in India, joined us as well.

Thank you to our Tri-State chapter team and volunteers for bringing everyone together. And to every guest and contributor, we’re grateful for your generosity and your support for school lunches for children in India.

Education works like that. What a girl learns today can keep paying forward through everyone she looks after later. That's the long view our supporters share when they help fund school lunches through the Akshaya Patra program in India.

This year, International Day of the Girl Child calls on the world to invest in girls. For us, that investment is a school lunch, served every school day.

We're grateful to everyone standing behind our beneficiaries. There are many more girls we want to reach, in more classrooms across India, and your support is how we get there.

We pray Maa Durga's strength and grace stay with every home through Navratri and well beyond.

Happy Navratri to our community across the US.

For the past two weeks, families have offered food in remembrance of those who came before them. It is an act of reverence for every generation behind us.

This year, let that remembrance reach a classroom in India.
In your ancestor’s name, $20 feeds one child school lunch for a full year.

Donate in their memory by October 10 - https://apusa.org/
