Holidays Cut Off School Meals

NyakallongCaregivers now feed 200 children a day through the school break.

The state’s largest anti-hunger programme stops exactly when unemployed households need it most.

South Africa’s National School Nutrition Programme is built around the academic calendar, not around need, so its coverage ends when term does.

We Care Daycare has no funding pledge beyond this holiday’s meals.
