How a midday meal can keep children safe

By Joanna Bega | Chief Executive

Young children drinking alcohol to keep them going

In this report we'd like to do something a little bit different. We'd like to share with you a short film we have made that illustrates how something as simple as providing a midday meal can keep children safe in school, and out of the hands of traffickers.

When our staff first saw the children at Dokotar primary school they were shocked. They couldn't believe that parents would send children as young as five to school with "hooch" - which is locally produced alcohol. 

When we saw this, we just knew we had to do something. 

You can find out what happened by viewing the film here
