Our school is located in a particularly deprived area of Mombasa. Many children can't access education due to lack of facilities, resources and funds for teachers. This means that families and communities struggle to break the cycle of poverty. Health issues, in particular, hunger and its related ailments, keeps children away as food is prioritised over education.
Donations made to this project are used to subsidise teachers' wages and the Feeding Programme, which has been running since 2010. The feeding programme feeds around 250 children two nutritious meals a day, improving their health and concentration levels. We are also fundraising to build a new school with a veggie garden.
Children who are fed nutritious meals at school will be more able to engage with school activities and have greater prospects of reaching their full potential. A donation of just $15 per month will feed one child for the month we thank you for your support.
