Message from Sadguru Sri Madhusudan Sai - Serving 9 Million School Children The Sri Sathya Sai Annapoorna Trust has initiated a morning nutrition program for all government and government-aided school children in Karnataka. The SaiSure micronutrient health mix, along with government-sponsored milk powder, will now be provided to 55 lakh school children in the state. CFTRI-approved SaiSure micronutrient health mix aims to tackle vitamin and mineral deficiencies, particularly addressing anemia prevalent in rural areas. The launch took place on February 22, 2024, at the Banquet Hall in Vidhana Soudha, Bangalore. The program was inaugurated by the Honorable Chief Minister - Siddaramaiah, who was joined by school children and the founder of Sri Sathya Sai Annapoorna Trust, Sadguru Sri Madhusudan Sai. In his address, Sadguru emphasized the importance of addressing micronutrient deficiency and highlighted the collaboration with the government and various CSR partners. Drawing parallels to schemes like Anna Bhagya and Ksheera Bhagya, he expressed joy at the launch of SaiSure Bhagya. The program, initiated in 2012 with 50 children in Karnataka, has now expanded to serve 90 lakh children in over 1 lakh government schools across 25 states and 4 Union Territories, reaching a significant milestone.

He warmly welcomed the collaboration between the Annapoorna Trust and the government of Karnataka in implementing the nutrition program.
