Sri Sathya Sai Prema Dayini

Nourishment Beyond Need, Health Beyond Hunger

The Sri Sathya Sai Prema Dayini initiative is dedicated to providing a nourishing start to the day of rural school children by serving them nutritious breakfasts every morning.

Through this initiative, hundreds of students from remote villages near Uyyamballi are provided with hot, freshly-cooked, and nutritious breakfasts right at their school premises every morning. The breakfast menu is meticulously designed by our nutritionist, taking into account the specific nutritional deficiencies and local dietary preferences of the children. The programme offers a diverse array of dishes, carefully rotated throughout the week, ensuring a balanced and varied nutritional intake. Additionally, the children are served a fortified ragi drink, rich in essential vitamins and minerals, to complement their breakfast meals.

This initiative not only addresses the fundamental issue of hunger but also facilitates better concentration, cognitive development, and overall well-being of the students, enabling them to learn and thrive in their academic pursuits.

Sri Sathya Sai Svedanika, the central kitchen at Vaatsalyam serves as the central focal point for the Sri Sathya Sai Prema Dayini initiative. This state-of-the-art kitchen is where nutritious meals are prepared on a daily basis with utmost quality, hygiene and love by the chefs and staff members.

Testimonials

“The breakfast served everyday at our school by Sri Sathya Sai Premaarpitham Foundation is immensely beneficial for us. Previously, I used to feel hungry without having eaten breakfast at home, but now I can enjoy breakfast at my school. We get a wide variety of items and I eagerly await each morning's meal. I convey my gratitude and pray that many more schools receive tasty breakfast meals!"

Hamsa Class 5, Yellagalli Government School

"The breakfast provided by Sri Sathya Sai Premaarpitham Foundation has been a true gift to all of us. Previously, I used to not eat breakfast as my parents couldn't prepare it in the morning because of their busy schedules. Now they are very happy that I receive nutritious breakfast at school, everyday. I like all the different breakfast items, especially the ragi malt!"

Lathika Class 5, Yellagalli Government School

"In the past, students from distant villages would arrive at the school hungry, having journeyed without eating breakfast. The afternoon school lunch would be their first meal of the day, leaving them hungry until then. Sri Sathya Sai Prema Dayini has brought positive change. By providing nourishing breakfasts to all the students. There is a definite improvement in their energy, focus and enthusiasm. With full and satisfied stomachs, our students are now much happier."

Ms. Sreedevi Teacher, Yellagalli Government School

“Since the breakfast programme started, I no longer have to study with an empty stomach. We all collectively chant the Bramharpanam shloka and then eat the breakfast served at our school. It brings all of us so much joy. Among the various items served, I love the Shavige Bath.”

"The breakfast seva initiative by Sri Sathya Sai Premaarpitham Foundation at our school has been incredibly beneficial for us.
