Kids helping Kids - UK school children fighting hunger

As part of the GeatReal Campaign, the School Food Trust has teamed with WFP to launch The Really Good School Dinner Initiative. Other than being a Really Good School Dinner it is a Really Good Way of Raising Awareness and Charity!

It’s a great chance for you and your school to help children in some of the world’s poorest countries.

From the Intern Desk: Elise

 In September 2009, four pairs of students enrolled in Dutch universities started a six month internship in Africa. This life changing experience will provide them with a unique opportunity to experience the realities of humanitarian aid first hand, thanks to the TNT Global Experience Programme (TNT GEP).

The programme, launched in 2005, is a collaboration between the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP), TNT - one of our leading private sector partners and AIESEC - the  international student association.

'What do you earn breaking stones'

 

In the second part of the ‘On the Road: Kenya’ series Marcus Prior takes us to the green slopes of the mountains of Kenya. Even though there is far more pasture, the cattle are not suited to this kind of environment and many of them are dying. Marcus then takes us to see some of the extreme methods people resort to in order to survive…

Watch and share….

We’re fighting hunger – come with us!

 

 

 

On the Road: Kenya

 "We need this food"

In the first part of the 'On the Road: Kenya' series Marcus Prior takes us to a drought-stricken Kenya where a hunger crises is deepening.

There are 4 million people in the need of food assistance. Not only are the humans suffering, the wildlife - an important part of Kenyan tourism industry, is suffering as well. The land is turning to dust, drought has left farmers with empty fields and dying cattle.  WFP food assistance is more vital now than ever. Join Marcus as he takes us for a ride through the heart of Kenya.

You've got a pot and you've got some water. All that's missing is some food. So, as your hungry children lie in bed nearby watching you, you boil some stones, hoping they'll fall asleep before they realise there isn't any supper.
