At Niños de Guatemala, we believe that proper nutrition is the foundation for a child's success. This GlobalGiving campaign focuses on a critical need: providing a nutritious morning meal to our 540 underprivileged students across our three schools.
Many of our students arrive at school on empty stomachs, making it incredibly difficult for them to concentrate and learn. This initiative directly addresses that challenge. By investing just $1.50 per student per day, we can ensure each child receives a vital meal, preparing them for a full day of learning and growth.
This project is essential for maximizing our students' potential. A well-nourished child is a focused child, and a focused child is a child who can break the cycle of poverty through education. Your support makes a direct and tangible difference in the lives of these students, providing them with the energy and focus they need to thrive, 11 months out of the year.
Thanks to the generous contributions we have received this year, each of our students has had the opportunity to receive one meal a day. This small act may seem simple, but it is very meaningful and has a very positive impact on the study day.
Project reports on GlobalGiving are posted directly to globalgiving.org by Project Leaders as they are completed, generally every 3-4 months. To protect the integrity of these documents, GlobalGiving does not alter them; therefore you may find some language or formatting issues.
