Food for Thought

On Saturday morning, my friends and I went to help the school with their "Food for Thought" program.  This program feeds almost 3000 students every day.  At this school,  we served a porridge breakfast to the students before they started classes.  Remember, food is a basic human need - so, by providing this need, the students are able to then focus on learning and not on hunger.

    That's really nice and it must take a long time to serve to 3000 kids every day.

    That is a vey nice thing to do! I bet both the children and their parents are very thankful for the program. It's probably one less thing to worry about in one day.
