Blessed Echoes Children Alliance is a non profit organization which exists to respond to the plight of poor and Vulnerable children in rural areas of Mayuge District in Uganda. The project supports disadvantaged whose parents and guardians can not provide them with meals while at school. With complete uncertainty where their next meal will come from, these children struggle to focus on their lessons with empty stomach. The project will provide Nutritious Meals to 80 School Children for six month

Malnutrition leads to health challenges among the children that may lead to severe physical and brain damage and increased illiteracy levels thereby endangering the future of future generations.
The project will solve the food crisis by providing daily nutritious lunches to 80 disadvantaged children for the next six months to enable them to study without interruption. Provision of daily meals will facilitate to improvement in school performance and less dropouts.

The school garden will be a training ground for the children to be involved in agriculture for food security.
