Protect Uganda-DRC Border Communities from Ebola

Dear Donor,

Thanks to your generous support, Development Alert was able to support school feeding activities for vulnerable children who often attend classes without knowing where their next meal will come from.

Hunger can be a major obstacle to education. A child who has not eaten may struggle to concentrate, participate in lessons, complete assignments, or remain in school throughout the day. For families experiencing severe financial hardship, providing daily meals can be extremely difficult.

Your support helped provide meals to children while creating a more supportive environment for learning. The intervention offers immediate nutritional assistance while also encouraging children to attend school consistently.

For parents, school feeding provides valuable relief from household food pressures. For teachers, it means having learners who are better positioned to concentrate on their studies.

But the impact is about more than food. A nutritious school meal tells a child that their wellbeing matters. It creates an environment where children can learn with greater comfort and dignity.

Development Alert continues to work with schools and communities to identify children who are most vulnerable and ensure that support reaches those who need it most.

Thank you for helping us nourish both children and their dreams. Your generosity is helping create healthier learners, stronger families, and brighter educational futures.
