NUTRITION SUPPORT PROGRAM: MADAD
Roopaantar Nature and Health Organisation, with the generous CSR support of Jaguar Resources and Capital Pte. Ltd., is spearheading a comprehensive Nutrition Support Program dedicated to Nourishing Young Lives for a more resilient future. This initiative focuses on the consistent provision of raw materials and essential grocery supplies to ensure that underprivileged and marginalized students in Aspirational and Tribal regions receive three nutritious meals—Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner—every single day. By addressing the fundamental need for food security, the project creates a foundation for better health and academic focus among children who otherwise face significant nutritional deficits.
Objectives
Ensure Food Security: To provide consistent access to High-Quality Raw Materials and Groceries for three full meals daily.
Combat Malnutrition: To improve the physical health and BMI of students across Tribal and Aspirational districts.
Support Education: To reduce Hunger-related Distractions, thereby increasing school attendance and improving cognitive performance.
Targeted Outreach: To reach the most Vulnerable Populations in remote and marginalized regions that often fall outside the traditional support net.
