Hunger is not about lack of food—it's about lack of access.
Every 10 seconds, a child dies of hunger. Incredibly, 82% of the world’s hungry live in regions where food is available—but they simply can't afford it. Meanwhile, one-third of all food produced globally goes to waste.
At Apna Shelter India Foundation, we believe that no one should sleep hungry—especially when food is being thrown away.
Our volunteers collect surplus food from restaurants, food joints, and local communities. This food is then distributed to those who need it most, including:
Homeless individuals and families
Children in orphanages
Patients in government hospitals
Elderly in care homes
From Thane to other parts of Maharashtra, we are building a local movement with a national vision.
Our “APNAs” are mostly college students and young professionals who donate their spare time to serve their neighborhoods. They're trained, motivated, and deeply compassionate.
By becoming a part of this volunteer-driven model, they not only feed others but inspire their peers to care, act, and lead.
We don’t just feed people—we build communities of care. Our mission is to:
Eliminate food waste
Combat hunger locally and nationally
Inspire self-sufficient volunteer teams across India
We learned that once-a-week help isn’t enough. In a country where millions go hungry, we must scale now.
Hunger is urgent. Every meal saved and shared can save a life.
