UnderprivilegedChild nutrition programs are designed to help those children who are malnourished and deprived of nutrition. These programs help them to get the nutrition they require to grow and develop. Designed as per age, demographics “meals for underprivileged children” help in reducing hunger and increasing nutrition. Sakshi Ngo works in this field to reach children from birth to preschool, School going kids, young genres, and growing girls.

Various types of programs that we organize are:

·       Mid-day meals for school going children

·       Summer vacation meal programs with nutrition guide

·       Weekend programs of meals to motivate children for well-balanced food.

Motive of these successful and cost-effective meal programs are to help low-income group of families, childcare, balanced diet to growing child and awareness of nutrition programs and its benefits. We work with a mission to reach the segments and provide benefits of meals programs to most communities. Nutrition and basic meal are directly related to one’s brain and physical overall development. If a child doesn’t get adequate food, he/she will get deprived of education and growth in life.
