Nourish Lives, Defeat Hunger
Every meal we deliver today helps build a stronger tomorrow for children and families.
At Mamata Care Foundation, we recognise that hunger isn’t simply an empty stomach — it is a barrier to dignity, growth and opportunity. In many communities of Odisha, under-nutrition and food insecurity silently shape futures. That’s why our Food & Malnutrition initiative is committed to turning that quiet crisis into a shared victory for children, families and entire neighbourhoods.
The Challenge We Face
Malnutrition isn’t only about missing meals — it is about missing nutrients, missed developmental milestones, and missed dreams. In Odisha, children and mothers in marginalised communities face deep-rooted food insecurity, limited access to nutritious diets, and inadequate awareness of healthy feeding practices. Without timely intervention, the consequences echo across age, schooling and health. Our work focuses squarely on where these gaps are widest.
What We Do
Nutritional Support & Supplementation — We provide targeted food-aid and nutrient-rich supplementary rations to children under five, pregnant and lactating women, and households coping with food scarcity.
Feeding Programmes & Partnerships — Working with local anganwadis, schools and community centres, we help establish sustainable meal-schemes that go beyond just calories to include quality, micronutrients and diversity.
Education & Behaviour Change — Knowledge is power: we conduct workshops on child feeding, infant & young child nutrition, maternal diet, hygiene practices and kitchen-garden models that enable families to grow what they need.
Monitoring & Impact-Tracking — We measure growth-progress, attendance, health-markers, and food-security indicators to adjust our program-design and scale what works.
Why It Matters
When a child gets proper nutrition, they learn better, grow stronger, resist illness, and step into tomorrow with hope. When mothers are nourished, their children begin well. And when food‐security becomes community-norm rather than exception, entire villages prosper. Our aim is nothing short of lasting change: from hunger to healthy growth, from vulnerability to resilience.
How You Can Join the Journey
You can make a real difference. Support our food-intervention programmes, volunteer in local feeding drives, or partner with us to build shared kitchen-gardens and nutrition-awareness hubs. Every contribution—time, skill, resource—helps shift the balance from scarcity to sustenance.
Together, we can ensure that food becomes a foundation – not a barrier – to thriving lives. Join Mamata Care Foundation as we nourish potential, combat malnutrition and nurture communities into fullness.
