Meal Support
Nepal’s National Mid-Day Meal Program covers students up to Grade 5. Our Hot Meal Program fills the gap for older students with a daily subsidy of NPR 22.5 per student, so they can stay at school, concentrate and learn.
“Since the Hot Meal Program began, I have observed a significant reduction in gastritis cases among students. Clinic visits for stomach-related complaints have decreased noticeably, and students now appear healthier and more energetic.”
– Dhan Maya Kasuri, School Nurse
