We provide quality education and a feeding programme in a deprived area of urban Mombasa. Most of the families are poor and malnourished. You cannot learn when you are hungry. Some of our children could starve during the long holidays so also we provide beans and maize meal to 29 of these families.

This is a deprived community where many are close to starvation and almost all are malnourished. Most children come to school hungry. It is difficult to concentrate when you are hungry.
We hope to continue with a feeding programme which has made a huge difference. We provide porridge in the morning and a balanced mid-day meal with a piece of fruit. The money we manage to raise each year through the Big Give has enabled us to do this for more than ten years but it is getting harder. We will continue to provide beans and maizemeal during the long school holidays to those in the greatest need.
