The One Egg Program was started by Shanghai United Foundation and other 9 NGOS on Dec 2010. Up to now, the program has been implemented five years.
By January 31 2015, the One Egg Program has been covering 67 elementary schools in four provinces including Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Guangxi. The program has ensured 11048 kids and teachers in poverty-stricken area in west China one egg a day.
50%-60% of students of program schools walk to school every day, and it will be take one to four hours. They missed breakfast because their poor families can’t make breakfast for them, and their schools don’t provide breakfast too. So they eat eggs for breakfast, and that could help them stay awake or don’t cat naps for the morning classes. There are some education program and poverty program in the One Egg Program project sites, together, these programs are essential to improving education and health of children in impoverished region. Also, cooperation of several programs pools our resources and allows each to contribute what they can.
