More than 800 students at the Laura Vicuña's elementary school in Inharrime, Mozambique, receive a small loaf of bread each day as a school lunch. Many of the students do not eat anything before they come to school. As can be imagined, they have a very hard time concentrating if they don’t eat. Through this program, they get something to eat each day and they are better able to focus on their studies – teachers report that they do noticeably better in school after eating.

Infants with failure to thrive in Mozambique have very few options for nutritional support. Our program provides infant formula and baby food for infants identified at the local health post and enrolled in our program.
