Spirulina Foundation is also supported by volunteers who are deeply involved in the foundation. One of them is Mihika Suraj. Mihika is a multi-talented grade 6 student who is a trained singer, guitarist, and performer. She also enjoys playing sports like badminton, football and athletics and thus realizes the importance of nutrition. Introduced to Spirulina chikki when she was 9 years old, Mihika was very surprised when her parents told her that this delicious concoction was also healthy. Like any other child, she wondered how something so healthy could also be tasty and thus started researching and learned that Spirulina is a natures’ gift pack of umpteen micronutrients which has great health benefits, especially in the fight against child malnutrition.
