School meals that protect learning
Hunger can affect a child’s concentration, energy and ability to participate in school. MBNCF supports children during school term time in Ghana and Burkina Faso.
Support is organised around breakfast, lunch and after-school food so children can begin, continue and complete the school day nourished.
