Why Are School Meals Important?

Increased Enrollment

For disadvantaged families across Kenya and wider
Sub-Saharan Africa, school meals offer a powerful incentive to send children to school.

Improved Concentration

When meals are available in classrooms, enrolment and attendance increase, and children are better able to concentrate, learn, and participate.

Transformed Futures

By addressing hunger, school meals remove a major barrier to education and have a lasting, transformative impact on children’s futures as well as their communities.

Feed A Child, Build A Kitchen
This Ramadan

In Sub-Saharan Africa, our school feeding program provides children with nutritious food sourced from local farms and prepared in planet-friendly community kitchens. And it does much more!

Beyond feeding children, it creates dignified jobs for local community members, including mothers; supports farmers’ livelihoods; and cares for the environment, showcasing the inter-connected power of a program that uplifts an entire community, while helping children learn, grow, and thrive.
