251 Children Need Your Help for Food
The situation remains dire for thousands of children in Ethiopia, Kenya, Pakistan, & South Sudan. We have been feeding children for more than eight years now and have 251 children at the Aweil Town Primary School that need our help to begin receiving meals at school. For some, this will be the only meal that they receive during the day!
Your gift will provide funding for nine months of food required to sustain this effort through 2024. You may want to consider making your support a monthly gift that will keep these children nourished every month beyond the launch!
To date, we have provided more than an estimated 2 million meals to feed hungry children. Let's bring what we have to the storehouse and God will bless it on the behalf of these 251 children in Aweil Town!
Four of our eighteen Mission Projects fall within our Nutrition Initiative.
AWEIL COMMUNITY ORPHANS FEEDING PROGRAMME (ACOFP) involves a school feeding operation in three villages namely Adoor Village (Aweil East), Beliek Village (Aweil Central), and Lueth-Wek Village (Aweil East), and in turn increases access to education and improves nutrition for orphan children. Our program meets the development needs of Aweil Central County and Aweil East County both in Northern Bhar el Ghazal State by contributing to the goal of universal primary education targeting children living in areas of poverty and food insecurity by removing barriers to education such as hunger.
Since starting this program with 300 orphaned children in February 2016 we have fed children five days a week, and also have encouraged many more to attend school in the process. We provided for approximately 2 million meals for vulnerable children since 2016, and we plan to serve a projected 464,340 meals in 2024 in Ethiopia, Kenya, Pakistan, & South Sudan. Any surplus raised will go to deliver meals beyond this launch period for Aweil Town, increase the number of children served, or to increase the portion sizes to a growing number of children.
