The school year has started early October in primamry schools in Burkina Faso.
Our local partner APPA has delivered the goods needed for the first quarter of this school year: rice, edible oil and salt. Parents have to bring beans for proteines.
Children were very excited n the school of the village of Fon, when the director asked the children to clean the space where the food is stored and the kitchen tools. Tis was a sign that food was coming.
Some of the children had alredy come to the director saying that they had stomach ache...
The harvest has not yet been done and there is no food in the granary. Children are coming to school with an empty stomach.
In this situation, the lunch program is so important for the development of the children, also for the motivation to attend school and for a better follow up of the lectures.
We are very grateful for all donations. We have been able to provide food for 3.500 children in 15 primamry schools.
The provided goods will allow to provide lunch until the end of 2022. We need more funds for the rest of the year.
Please communicate this project to your network.
Thank you
