The problem
Childhood hunger is one of the most urgent, yet most solvable issues facing children in Africa. There are over 500 million children in Africa but only 27% of these have access to school meals. In Kenya, 1 in 4 children is stunted due to poor nutrition.
The solution
We provide hot, nutritious subsidised lunch meals to school going children everyday. We currently provide 75,000 + meals everyday and and we are moving to serve 1 million meals every day in the next 5 years. We do this by focusing on 3 key parts of school feeding:
Bulk Sourcing
