About ISKCON FOOD FOR CHILD
The history of ISKCON Food For Child starts with a story of compassion. Looking out of a window one day in Mayapur, a village near Calcutta, His Divine Grace A.C Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada saw a group of children fighting with street dogs over scraps of food. From this simple, yet heart breaking incident, came the determination that: No one within a ten mile radius of our center should go hungry.
It is his inspiration which helped us to create The ISKCON Food For Child as it is today. ISKCON Food For Child believes in providing children with the right nutrition.
Importance of ISKCON FOOD FOR CHILD
Hunger kills 9 million people every year and 24,000 people every day and out of them 18,000 are children. 60% of the children in India go to sleep hungry every night. Half the children in the age group of 6 to 14 years do not have access to primary education. We feel, by subjecting children to hunger, we rob them of their God given potential. India's progress in reducing child malnutrition is very slow.
