CARE THAT STARTS AT SCHOOL

A daily meal.
Room to learn.

Uganda Nutrition Feeding Program works with schools and communities to fight hunger where children learn.

We provide daily nutritious meals to orphans and vulnerable children in schools so they can stay in class, focus and learn well.

For many children, a meal at school is essential to getting through the day. We want every child to feel cared for and ready to take part in learning.

02WHY SCHOOL FEEDING?

FOOD HELPS CHILDREN TAKE PART

A meal changes
the school day.

When children have nourishing food at school, they have a better chance to remain in class, concentrate and learn.

01

Some arrive hungry

Many children come to school without having eaten at home.

02

Hunger interrupts learning

It can be hard to concentrate when hungry, and some children may leave school.

03

A daily meal supports the day

School meals help children stay in class and can support their health and learning.
