Providing 90,000 nutritious meals and conducting nutrition and hygiene workshops in government schools
Amway India, one of the leading companies supporting health and wellbeing needs, is addressing the critical issue of childhood malnutrition through a transformative initiative to support a healthier future for India’s underprivileged children. According to the Ministry of Women and Child Development, 7.7 per cent of children (around 43 lakh) in India are malnourished, highlighting a critical issue that the government is prioritising with efforts to improve nutritional outcomes. Committed to the cause of childhood malnutrition, as part of Nutrilite’s 90th-anniversary celebration, Amway, supported by its distributors and employees, has collaborated with The Akshaya Patra Foundation to sponsor over 90,000 nutritious meals for children in government schools.
In the spirit of Children’s Day, the initiative extended further with educational sessions to empower students with knowledge about nutrition, hygiene, mental health, and balanced diets. Amway volunteers actively participated by serving nutritious meals to the children. This impactful initiative spanned eight key locations: Delhi, Jaipur, Bhubaneswar, Guwahati, Pune, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, and Chennai, aiming to spark meaningful change for a brighter future.
