Campaign Overview
It gives me a great pleasure to take this opportunity to make a difference in the Jorhat, the heart of Assam Tea. Very recently I was introduced to Akshaya Patra, and was incredibly impressed when I learned that Akshaya Patra currently feeds over 1.4 million (14 lakh) children mid-day meals in 10,770 schools across India, every school day.
Akshaya Patra has a kitchen in Guwahati that feeds 53,649 children! My vision is to set up a kitchen in Jorhat where such programme is needed immediately. The unlimited mid-day meal is often the only substantive meal for children here. They come to school for the meal and access education at the same time.
T.E.A. stands for Teach-Empower-Achieve. The purpose of TEA is to make a tangible difference in the daily life of the children of some of the humblest workers on the planet, by providing them a nutritious lunch every school day. TEA provides the world’s tea businesses a chance to give something back to the families who grow, harvest and process the tea we sell.
Please join me in supporting this great cause. Funds collected through this campaign page will go to support a new kitchen in Jorhat. Together we can make a difference in the lives of our dear workers and their families who give so much to us every day.
