Mary's Meals works in 18 countries across Africa, Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe, and the Caribbean.
More than a million children in Zimbabwe are missing out on an education. Poverty and hunger cause many others to skip classes or stop coming to school altogether.
Once referred to as the ‘breadbasket of Africa’, years of violent upheaval, forced land distribution and drought have had a devastating impact on Zimbabwean agriculture, leading to widespread hunger in parts of the country.
Our work
We work closely with local partners Mavambo Orphan Care and ORAP (The Organisation of Rural Associations for Progress).Through our trusted partners, we feed hungry children in schools and education centres in Epworth District in Harare and in Goromonzi and Murehwa Districts in Mashonaland East Region. We also have feeding programmes in Umguza District in Matabeleland North Region.
