Without food, many children living in Kibera, one of Africa's biggest slums, miss lessons or are unable to focus in class. This leads them dropping out of school and resort to begging or carrying out casual jobs to earn a small income in order to buy food. The streets are a dangerous place for a child in Kibera and they can experience abuse, or involve themselves in crime and drugs. Turning Point's Feeding Programme keeps children off the streets and safely in school.

We provide daily meals to 200 children attending our education programmes. These meals are a real pull-factor encouraging children to attend school every day. With full bellies, they can concentrate in class throughout the day resulting to improved learning outcomes.

By feeding the children, we encourage them to stay in school and focus on their studies. This will, in turn, help them to achieve better results and progress in their education - a crucial factor in succeeding in modern day Kenya. Further, daily nutrition helps them to stay healthy and grow strong.

Help us raise funds to sustain this programme for the next 3 years. With a monthly donation of £15, you can provide a month's meal to a needy child and help them stay in school.
