Bringing Warm, Nutritious Food to the Needy

Bringing Warm, Nutritious Food to the Needy.

In these challenging times, countless families are struggling to put adequate food on their tables. According to recent statistics, approx. 16.6% of India’s population is undernourished, and around 35.5% of children under five years of age are stunted due to malnutrition. Our country’s ranking in the 2023 Global Hunger Index – a concerning 111^th out of 125 countries – rightly underlines the severity of the problem.

This reality is even more noticeable in urban areas, where many find themselves trapped in poverty without any kind of support from the community or the government. In Mumbai alone, 9 million people live in slums, out of which 59.7% of households face severe food insecurity.

Donate Food to the Poor with Neki Basket

Our goal at Neki Basket is to ensure no child or family has to sleep hungry. As an organization dedicated to food donation for the underprivileged, we rely on your kindness to make food more accessible to those who need it most.

With your support and in partnership with local shops and food distribution centres, we distribute food packages with warm and nutritious meals to low-income families and vulnerable communities in your city. Because for those going through tough times, it’s not just a meal but rather a means of survival and hope for the future.

Community Kitchens for Meal Donation:

Launched in 2022, the Community Kitchen initiative is a vital component of the Neki Basket, a unique concept empowering those in need to prepare meals for themselves and their community with your assistance in providing the ingredients.

The urban poor often miss out on government aid due to their migratory nature and are overlooked by the affluent. Through community kitchens, we are doing our best to help disadvantaged families combat hunger. Presently, we offer hygienic cooked meals to 100 families three times a week at a designated feeding site.

Help us Feed the Hungry

We have distributed more than 21,527 food packets to date. With a donation of just ₹50, you can provide a nourishing meal to someone less fortunate. To make a bigger impact, you can sponsor a community feeding site at ₹50,000/- for an entire month. Join us in this fight against hunger by helping us donate food to the poor.
