THE CHILDREN'S FEEDING PROGRAM
Convoy of Hope’s Children’s Feeding Program runs in 36 countries around the world engaging with 571,000 people. For only $120, meals are provided for a child for a whole school year. Children who are a part of Convoy’s Feeding Programs not only receive a meal but benefit from education, clean water, and a healthy environment.
FEED CHILDREN NUTRITIOUS MEALS
Many of the children engaged in the feeding program receive their only meal of the day from Convoy. That reality fuels Convoy’s commitment to addressing the problems of hunger and poverty simultaneously. For this reason, each time Convoy opens a site to feed children, the process starts with building customized plans for every neighborhood, city, and country where Convoy works.
CREATE HEALTHY ENVIRONMENTS
The strategy for Children’s Feeding starts with a meal, but food is only part of the solution. Convoy partners with communities to develop healthy environments, provide training, and evaluate infrastructure needs.
SUPPORT EDUCATION
Poor nutrition, improper hygiene, and lack of sanitation can derail a child’s life. To lessen the impact of these issues, Convoy provides education on proper hygiene, how to care for expecting mothers and infants, and promotes the importance of a child’s education.
PROVIDE CLEAN & SAFE WATER
Water is life. Without access to it, communities cannot thrive. Whether it’s through digging a well or setting up a filtration system, Convoy is committed to doing what is necessary to get clean water to those who lack access to it.
