Help Feed 1 Million Children


As many of you know, R and I have been longtime supporters of The Akshaya Patra Foundation.  Akshaya Patra feeds almost 1 million children across India for $28 per child per year.  Many of these children are encouraged to attend school because this is their only meal of the day.
