Our Vision: No Student Hungry

Inspired by the visionaries behind Akshaya Patra—the world’s largest school meal program—World Food Movement is committed to ensuring that no college student in the U.S. goes hungry.
With Akshaya Patra serving 2.25 million meals daily and over 4 billion meals to children in India, its impact was recognized by the United Nations in 2024. Now, World Food Movement is bringing this mission to underserved college students across the U.S., providing nutritious meals to support their education and well-being.
Mission
To provide 1 million meals annually across the U.S. by 2030, promoting healthier bodies and minds
Vision
No student hungry

Many of our students are working Moms and Dads who do not have income or time to bring their own lunches. Our campus does not have food readily available and driving is not practical. We are very grateful for the meals that Sattvic Meals Foundation [now, World Food Movement] brings to our campus. Their impact on our community is amazing. Our students eat together, they make friends and they learn together. I am super grateful
