There is overwhelming evidence that school feeding has a dramatic effect on learning, and besides, no kid should go through the day hungry. Food for Education provides a nutritious daily lunch to primary school children in Kenya. They source food directly from local farmers and produce meals in a “hub and spoke” structure to efficiently provide inexpensive, nutritious food for kids.
