The Hunger Problem in urban India:
As development professionals, one of the biggest social and developmental challenges that we have seen in India is the prevalent, and underappreciated phenomenon of urban destitution.
Hunger in our cities continues to be a very visible, yet relatively unaddressed problem. The statistics speak for themselves:
Economic distress triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic has made a bad situation worse, with many families slipping back into poverty. The economic condition of the poor, especially migrants and slum-dwellers has worsened with significant job losses, especially in the unorganized sector.
As development professionals, one of the biggest social and developmental challenges that we have seen in India is the prevalent, and underappreciated phenomenon of urban destitution.
Hunger in our cities continues to be a very visible, yet relatively unaddressed problem. The statistics speak for themselves:
- 20 Crore Indians are undernourished
- 51% of women of reproductive age and 57% of children under 5 are anemic
- 21% children under the age of 5 are underweight and 38% are stunted

How we address Hunger:
At Project Annadanam we are trying to make a difference, however small, to this dismal state of affairs. Project Annadanam uses food vans to provide food to the urban poor. At present, we use a food van to provide 100 meals 6 days a week to the urban poor in Hyderabad.
We have entered into an agreement with Manna Foundation, Hyderabad to provide us packets of cooked food on a cost reimbursement basis. Our van picks up the food from Manna Foundation’s premises and distributes it to the urban poor who live in the streets and pavements around Gachibowli, Hyderabad.
We started operations on 1st March 2018 and have distributed 56,132 meals as of May 31, 2020.

How we plan to utilize our funds:
Given the current crisis, we plan to increase the food packets distributed from 100 a day to 250 a day.
We also plan to distribute 50 ration kits every day to needy families for a period of one month. Each ration kit is expected to last a five-member family a week. This initiative is expected to benefit 1,500 families. Each kit will contain:

After the fundraising campaign began, we have started with the distribution of rations to needy families. In the first phase, we distributed rations to 240 pavement and slum dwelling families in and around Gachibowli, Patancheru and Gudimalkapur in Hyderabad.
We plan to commence the second stage of rations distribution soon once we have the requisite funds.
We thank all our donors for helping us serve those in need.
