many children sit on a mat in a migrant camp, waiting for a daily meal

Thanks to the generous support of donors feeding hungry children, families in migrant camps receive daily nutritious meals!

In the heart of Bangalore, children live in migrant communities where finding food is a daily struggle.

India is home to 600 million internal migrants, driven from rural villages to crowded cities in search of work. Some parents find jobs in construction and other labor-intensive industries. But their income barely meets their family’s basic needs. Children are thin and weak. They go to bed with empty bellies and dream of food…

But thanks to you, Holt’s local partner provides daily meals for children in these camps. Each child receives a glass of fortified porridge made from millets, rice, lentils and other nourishing ingredients — plus a boiled egg.

Your support gives children the meals they need to grow stronger, healthier and more alert. Monthly growth monitoring helps detect issues like anemia early, and children receive vitamins to help them stay healthy. Your lifesaving generosity also provides emergency ration kits so no child is forgotten in times of urgent need.

Because of you, children in Bangalore’s migrant camps are growing healthier each day. They’re gaining weight, smiling more and playing with energy — like every child should.

Thanks to you, an entire community is growing stronger — one meal at a time.
