Story

Thursday 10th October sees the return of World Porridge Day and we would love you to join our celebrations of all things porridge by inviting your friends, family and co-workers to enjoy a porridge breakfast with you between 7th and 20th October.

We’d love to raise £1,125 - enough to provide a mug of porridge to 2,500 Kenyan children for 5 days. Will you help us?

Simply provide the porridge and a variety of tasty toppings for your guests, and in return, ask for donations for African Children’s Fund’s Porridge Clubs programme!

Each mug of porridge costs just 9p so for every £9 in donations you receive from your World Porridge Day breakfast, 100 children will receive a nutritious porridge meal rather than having to work, scavenge or beg on the streets.
