The education of children is a fundamental part of what we do at IMAGINE; Corporate Social Responsibility forms one of our core values.

An organization that we have found to be not only impressive, but truly inspiring is Akshaya Patra.

Akshaya Patra addresses two of the most immediate challenges facing India today, hunger and education. With a vision that no child shall be deprived of education because of hunger, Akshaya Patra feeds over 1 million children a day!

In a short time, the organization has grown to become the largest, and certainly most innovative, school lunch program in the world. Akshaya Patra is a great example of what a non-profit organization can achieve-- a cost effective, scalable solution with high quality service delivery. In fact Akshaya Patra has been featured at the Clinton Global Initiative (2007 and 2008) and was awarded the 2008 India Business Leader Award for Social Enterprise of the Year by CNBC-TV in India. Notably, Harvard Business School developed a case study for its MBA curriculum on Akshaya Patra's model for precise time management.

IMAGINE, in our own small way, is supporting Akshaya Patra by “adopting” a number of children to feed for the year and by raising awareness of this remarkable cause through our growing network of schools, corporations and individuals.
