Eradication Hunger, Poverty, Malnutrition

Project Havells Mid- Day Meal Program  (2016-17)

Project description.

The Mid-Day Meal program is our flagship CSR activity. We provide mid-day Meals in government schools in Alwar district of Rajasthan, covering 59,000 students in 690 schools per day. It is cooked in the state-of-the-art kitchens. A fleet of 26 meal vans with dedicated staff and drivers ensure regular supply of freshly cooked food.  This alleviates hunger and has also helped in increasing the number of children attending school regularly.

The fresh, hygienic and nutritious food is prepared in the Havells state-of-the-art kitchen in accordance with government-approved diet charts. Spread over an area of 4 acre, the kitchen employs staff of over 160 people including cooks, helpers and drivers along with a fleet of 26 vans to ensure hassle-free and timely delivery of the meals every day. Ownership of the entire mid-day meal value chain from procurement of food materials to food preparation, storage and transportation to school, gives the company complete control over the quality and hygiene of the meals. This goes in line with Havells philosophy of providing the best quality in all company offerings.

Impact of the project:

Improved Nutritional Intake

There is a notable improvement in Body Mass Index (BMI) amongst girls studying in schools where the Havells program has been running for more than five years. The average grew from 13.7 to 14.3 in schools where the program has been running for past 3 years.

Increased Enrolment Rate

There was an average enrolment growth of 10 to 15% in the partner schools. The Head Teachers, SMC Members and Parents interviewed for the study attributed this growth to nutritious and tasty food provided in the school as it appealed to both parents and students.

Reduced Dropout Rate

The average number of dropouts in the partner schools declined over three consecutive academic years from 2013 to 2016. Considerable decrease was seen in average dropout rate of girls in upper primary section as it came down to 6% from 24% in academic year 2015-2016. Similarly, average dropout rate of boys in primary sections saw a steady decline from 9% to 4% over the period of three years.

Increased Interest in Studies

As shared by parents and teachers, students’ interest in going to school increased over the years. Of the interviewed parents, 67% stated that there has been an increase in their child’s interest in going to school due to availability of better quality and variety of food, especially sweets.

Quality, Quantity and Variety of Food

Every student that has been interviewed liked the quality of food served under the Havells MDM Program. Amongst them, 97% students were satisfied with the quantity of food served.

Improved Academic Performance

The Havells MDM Program helped improve student’s concentration along with their academic performance. 44% of parents felt that now their children don’t stay hungry or come back home to eat lunch, and hence, they study with better concentration and willingness.

Reduced Burden on Teachers

A few of the head teachers reviewed that with Havells taking charge of the mid- day meals, teachers now spend more time on teaching related activities than the MDM, thus contributing to improving the quality of education in their schools.
