Child Hope Feeding Program





Here are some of the pictures of a few of the children getting breakfast before school.  The feeding program relies on donations.  As donations are received, children are fed.  A UK donor sent it over $1,000 to provide food for the children in Manyana.  This food is given to the children regardless of whether they are sponsored or not.  Most of these children you probably don't recognize, but if you know your child is in Manyana, you may want to scrutinize the rest of the photos on the Child Hope Blog to see if your child is there.  I found one of mine in the mix =)

Is the first little boy in the red shirt sponsored?

Heather M said...

No, he is not sponsored. I should be getting his profile next week.

When you get his profile will you let me know? I would love to sponsor him if that's ok.

96 kids are in Manyana. How does this work? Are they fed at the same distribution as the other kids?

Heather M said...

This is the regular feeding program (not to be confused with food at distribution). The children are fed breakfast and lunch as there are funds available. This couple in the UK provided funds for the program to provide food for the children in Manyana and Simwaba to eat for a few days. The children fed are any of the children in the area- sponsored and unsponsored and any hungry children can come for food.

Thanks for the clarity, Heather. And thanks to the UK couple, who did a wonderful thing.
