Our impact, counted in meals
HopeMeals started in 2025. Every figure here is real, and each one is what donors have made possible so far.
The record so far
Since 2025, donors have funded meals for students at partner institutions: B.J. Medical College. Every one of those students was verified before support began.
20,000+ meals, shared across 700+ students, every one paid straight to a canteen.
= 100 meals
Where every rupee goes
Donations pay for food. We pay the student’s mess, canteen or tiffin service directly, so the money cannot be spent on anything else.
