A BRIGHTER FUTURE

Help Feed a Child Like Nebyat

Nebyat is a 13-year-old pupil at Suta Primary School in the Tigray region of Ethiopia. Her family relies on rain-fed agriculture and has been severely affected by food shortages due to drought and the devastating impact of the brutal conflict in Tigray. 

“Most days, I used to go to school hungry. I couldn't concentrate on my lessons at all,” she says. “Other days, I didn't even go to school."

TOGETHER WE CAN DO MORE

This Christmas, our goal is to feed 25,000 children for an entire school year. 

Tracker

Every child counts. With our matching program, your gift of $31.70 will feed two children for an entire school year.

Thanks to a group of generous, long-term donors who have come together to create a matching pool, gifts will be matched from now through the end of the year.

School feeding unlocks children’s academic potential

Recent research by Mary’s Meals has shown that daily school meals improve a child’s education and
academic achievement by lowering their level of hunger, while increasing their overall energy,
engagement, and aspiration to learn. We also found that daily school meals help the children we serve
get better grades and improve their chances of going on to higher education.

It costs just $31.70 to feed a child in a place of education for a whole school year.
