About the programme

Wholesome food. For everyone.

Anna Canteen is a subsidised food programme launched by the Government of Andhra Pradesh on September 11, 2018.

The programme provides hot, nutritious breakfast, lunch, and dinner at just ₹5 per meal — making wholesome food accessible to labourers, auto drivers, students, daily wage earners, and anyone in the state who cannot afford a regular meal.

HKM Charitable Foundation was entrusted by the Government of Andhra Pradesh to operate and manage the kitchen infrastructure and distribution for this programme.

"Every human being deserves to be fed healthy and nutritious food. With Anna Canteen, HKMCF is proud to play its part in infusing kindness in society and impacting millions — one morsel at a time."
