Rice for malnourished slum kindergartners
We serve almost 1 million meals in the slums each year, which makes rice our most important food staple. We provide rice every day to the 1,000 children enrolled in our 16 kindergartens. One in ten children who enters our schools is malnourished and hungry, and it's very hard for a child to learn his first lesson on an empty stomach. These healthy meals for poor kids help the whole family, benefitting the larger community. In addition, we provide food for the 85 orphans who live in our centre.
An egg a day for kids in rural China
The One Egg Program initiated by Shanghai United Foundation (SUF) is to improve children's health in poverty areas in China by giving an egg per day to every child during their primary school years. SUF runs the program in cooperation with local grassroots NGOs and village schools. An egg only costs 10 cents but it means a lot to hungry kids. This fund will support more than 11,000 children and their teachers of 60 Primary Schools in poor districts of West China for long-term.
