Our Food Program was launched in 2009, In the Village of Santa Cruz with the goal of increasing food security in the community. The program aims to reduce hunger and malnutrition by providing a nutritious meals each school day. The goal is that by providing food security, we can help increase school enrollment, attendance and help the children focus on their education without worrying about their next meal. As of now we have expanded to 7 other rural villages. We have been successful in developing this program with the help of the local women who have taken charge of our kitchens and have committed to helping feed the children of their villages, with their help we are feeding 600 children 5 days a week.
