Nourish 14

Building a Healthier Future for India’s Young Generation

Children are the future of India—but for millions of children, that future is at risk due to poor nutrition and food insecurity. Across rural and village communities, many children under the age of 14 do not receive the balanced, nutritious food they need for healthy physical growth, brain development, and lifelong well-being.

Nourish 14 is RP Mission Foundation’s dedicated child-nutrition initiative focused on providing healthy, nutritious food to children below 14 years of age, especially from rural, village, and economically weaker backgrounds. Our goal is simple and powerful: prevent malnutrition today to build a healthier society tomorrow.

The Reality of Child Malnutrition in India

Malnutrition remains one of India’s most serious public health challenges.

According to national data (NFHS-5):

  • Over 35% of children in India are stunted (low height for age),a sign of chronic undernutrition
  • More than 32% of children are underweight
  • Poor nutrition in early childhood leads to weaker immunity,poor learning outcomes, and reduced earning potential in adulthood

For children under 14, inadequate nutrition directly affects:

  • Physical growth
  • Brain development and concentration
  • School performance
  • Long-term health and productivity

Without intervention, an entire generation’s potential is compromised.

WHAT WE DO

Why Nutritious Food Matters Before Age 14

The first 14 years of life are critical. This is when:

  • The brain develops rapidly
  • Bones, muscles, and immunity are formed
  • Eating habits and health foundations are established

Providing nutritious food during this stage helps:

  • Prevent stunting and underweight conditions
  • Improve learning ability and school attendance
  • Strengthen immunity and overall health
  • Break the cycle of poverty and malnutrition

Healthy children grow into healthy adults—and a stronger nation.
