The Akshaya Patra Foundation will be holding their 7th Annual Boston Benefit Event on March 29th. Over 300 business, non-profit, government, and philanthropic leaders from around the region are expected to attend and support the organization’s dual mission of addressing childhood hunger and malnutrition and to promote education for underserved children in India.

The keynote speaker for the evening will be Nina Davuluri, the winner of the 2014 Miss America Pageant. Davuluri is the first Indian-American to be chosen as Miss America.

The Akshaya Patra Foundation is one of the largest NGO-run school meal programs in the world and serves over 1.3 million children daily in over 10,050 schools through 19 kitchens in nine states in India.

Last year’s sold-out benefit drew over 300 individuals and raised over $380,000. This year’s event will feature an evening of networking, entertainment, and dinner. Seating is limited, so please RSVP soon.
