In celebration of National Nutrition Week, Uttar Pradesh Governor Anandiben Mafatbhai Patel visited Sharda University in Greater Noida on September 6, 2024. During her visit, she distributed educational kits to Anganwadi centers across Gautam Budh Nagar, recognizing the importance of early childhood development and adequate nutrition in shaping a healthier future for children. The initiative recognizes the critical role these centers play in fostering holistic growth and educational support for young children.
Paytm Foundation also played a significant role in this initiative by donating educational kits to Anganwadi centers in the district. These kits were equipped with essential resources such as toys, child-friendly furniture, weighing machines, utensils, and other materials aimed at supporting both early learning and nutritional care for the children. The provision of such tools is vital in ensuring that these centers have the necessary infrastructure to promote a healthy learning environment.
In acknowledgement of its contribution, Paytm Foundation was honoured with an award at the event by Uttar Pradesh Governor, Anandiben Mafatbhai Patel, reinforcing the company’s dedication to community-driven projects. National Nutrition Week, observed every year during the first week of September, focuses on raising awareness about the importance of proper nutrition in child development.
Through its involvement, Paytm Foundation reaffirms its commitment to supporting underserved communities and ensuring a nurturing environment for India’s future generation. By addressing both educational and nutritional needs, Paytm Foundation aims to empower these children to thrive and contribute meaningfully to society.
