Akshaya Patra is seeking motivated and socially conscious young people to make this world a better place!  If you are a 8 – 21 year old student living anywhere in the United States, our Youth Ambassador program is open to you!  

Our Youth Ambassadors are part of a dynamic and elite group of people, determined to make a difference in this world.  They are motivated, driven, young people who are the voices of the millions of children in India.

What do Youth Ambassadors do?

  1. Plan and organize awareness and fundraising events. 
  2. Set an age appropriate goal of raising monthly subscriptions for $20 per month for a year. $20 feeds a child for an entire academic year!
  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 campaign for your birthday where friends and family can donate to Akshaya Patra instead of giving you a physical item.
  5. Take part in campaigns and promote them within your social circles via social media.
  6. Participate in YA activities organized by Akshaya Patra.

  • References and recommendations for colleges, internships & job opportunities
  • Community service hours for school and extracurricular programs
  • Recognition on our website, social media and newsletters
