Puspanjali Rai, 9 years old, studying in class 3, is accompanied by her elder brother Narayan Rai in the same community school -Shree Atma Bikash, Muhanpokhari Budhanilkantha, Kathmandu, Nepal. The journey isn’t easy. She walks for about 30 minutes every day to school and back every day. But, Puspanjali and her brother Narayan along with four siblings with just their mothers. At Food for Life Nepal, we believe that one wholesome meal a day brings thousands of children to school daily. Therefore, we are committed to providing nutritious midday meals at 26 community schools to about 10,000+ children daily.
Since Food for Life Nepal began its ‘Mid Day-Meal Program’ in this school, it has improved Puspanjali and her brother’s academic performance as well as filled their empty stomach. This Mid-day meal has pushed them to go to school daily to learn effectively and be healthy.
