New Delhi, July 01, 2025: ADP India has announced an expansion of its collaboration with The Akshaya Patra Foundation through a year-long mid-day meal initiative that will provide over 12,44,000 nutritious meals to 5,800 children studying in government schools across India. The initiative, part of ADP India’s CSR program ‘Tarang,’ aims to support children’s education and well-being by ensuring daily access to hot, nutritious meals throughout the academic year.

The launch event was held at Mpps Aziz Nagar School, where members of ADP India’s leadership, including General Manager and Managing Director Vijay Vemulapalli, joined to serve meals to more than 150 students.

“At ADP, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to thrive, and that starts with access to basic nutrition. By extending our support from one month last year to an entire year now, we’re reinforcing our long-term commitment to communities that need it the most. This initiative is not just about meals, it’s about dignity, learning, and building a stronger future for our next generation,” said Vijay Vemulapalli at the launch.

The initiative aims to boost school attendance, enhance concentration, and promote the overall health of underprivileged children, reinforcing ADP’s larger mission of empowering communities through sustained engagement.

This effort builds on ADP India’s long-standing CSR work. Under its Tarang program, the company has supported various community development projects, including the MIDAS education initiative for over 35,000 children, classroom upgrades, installation of community CCTV systems, establishment of an ICU ward at Nilofer Children’s Hospital, and contributions to the PM Relief Fund during the COVID-19 pandemic. In May 2025, ADP’s “Month of Caring” involved donations of over ₹17.5 lakh and multiple volunteer initiatives across its offices in Hyderabad and Pune.
