The Situation - The Challenges for Children in Niger
Why do we need to provide meals at school?
The “foura” is a small ball of ground and slightly fermented millet crushed with water, and this is not enough to provide proper nutrition for children. Without the meal offered in the school cafeteria, the hunger will only deepen, and children will be exposed to life-threatening health problems. Many children’s lives are threatened by severe food insecurity, flooding, and diseases. You can start impacting children’s lives by supporting funds to provide at Bakiwal Elementary School.
