Africa, the poorest continent on earth
It’s not uncommon across many rural areas of Africa where families have to make difficult decisions and sacrifices just to simply send their children to school. This is due to the extreme levels of poverty across the continent.
For the children that are lucky enough to receive an education, most will still go through their school day without food, impacting on their chances of making the most of their education because of their hunger and lack of energy.
No child should have to starve but with your love & care, we can support children across Africa with school meals for simply £1 each. The impact of your donation will not only support a family through the struggle of feeding their children, but will help give tens of thousands of children across Africa a better start in life.
