Over 66 million children attend classes every day hungry. We partner with schools and communities to deliver healthy food to children who need it most. We feed over 12,000 children each week and have an immediate wait-list of over 2,500 children and millions more who face daily hunger.
Food is the most basic need for survival. There is more than enough food produced in the world to feed everyone. Still, 1 in 10 of the world's population is hungry. Thrive fills the nutrition gap. The children we support face significant micronutrient deficiencies that can lead to delayed brain and muscle development. Our meals provide 50% of a child's daily nutritional needs.
Directors and teachers of schools that benefit from Thrive's feeding program have consistently reported higher attendance rates and a greater desire to learn. These factors will have a direct impact on academic performance and may also decrease the likelihood of dropping out. By continuing their education and growing into contributing members of society, children have the potential to break the cycle of poverty.
