Hi there! We are the Yappies...the Youth Ambassadors of Akshaya Patra. We are a group of dynamic, creative, and thoughtful young people, determined to make a difference in this world through our awareness and fundraising intiatives.
We're so grateful to be a part of an organization that gives back to our heritage and culture in such an impactful way with the gift of a meal. This excites and motivates us to be the voices of those children of India here in the US by spotlighting our cause around our local communities.
What do Yappies do?
- 1 Plan and organize awareness and fundraising events.
- 2 Conceptualize, create, film, and edit content for our Akshaya Patra social channels
- 3 Write an essay or blog connected with your work as a YA or about Akshaya Patra. We will select and publish a new essay on our website each month.
- 4 Run an online fundraising campaign for your birthday where friends and family can donate.
- 5 Take part in campaigns and promote them via social media.
- 6 Participate in YA activities organized by Akshaya Patra.
