Who are we?
Bunch of software professionals who loves mangos 🥭 and want to contribute our little bit towards world hunger.
Odd combination right? First, why world hunger?
According to the United Nations, 733 million people faced hunger globally in 2023.
India continues to face significant challenges. In the Global Hunger Index 2023, India ranks 111th out of 125 countries, indicating a serious level of hunger.
According to the World Bank, the prevalence of undernourishment in India is 13.7% of the population (2020–2022 average).
Malnutrition also remains a major concern. According to the World Bank:
- 35.5% of children under five are stunted
- 19.3% suffer from wasting
Malnourished children are at a significantly higher risk of death from common illnesses such as diarrhea, pneumonia, and malaria.
And what it has to do with mangos?
Because like every single Indian, we miss this most exotic fruit from our homeland! Nothing in the world compares to the joy of biting into intense flavors of India's finest mangos.
