Wentworth Dads and Friends Unite to Ensure No Child Starts Their Day Hungry Old friends in their village in Wentworth, South Africa, noticed children were leaving home for school without a meal or even a slice of bread. “This group of senior men, former soccer players, and dedicated fathers decided to join heads and hearts to ensure no child goes to school on an empty stomach.” They created Feeding Our Future project, self-funded by the group, to provide free sandwiches and juice near the bus stop. The group hopes to expand to packed lunchboxes and other parts of the community where children walk to school. As a member of the group said, “Our effort is to at least give them something because a hungry child cannot concentrate.” “The most fulfilling part is seeing children go to school happy… The little we have to give is setting them up to do well in the classroom.” | Be The Change Look around your community. Find one way to help feed a hungry child, or shine a light on the soul of your village. | |
