School Feeding Program

Over the years Food for the Poor (Guyana) Inc. has been supporting a number of schools via our school feeding program. Under this program, students from impoverished communities would have access to a hot nutritious meal each school day and weekly breakfast hampers. This helped to encourage attendance, and punctuality, improve grades and aid in the overall well-being of the students.

Almost 500 children benefit from our school feeding program during the year; the children who were involved in remote learning received our weekly breakfast hampers while those engaged in face-to-face learning received a hot nutritional lunch each school day.
