Mid-day school meal
Mid-Day Meal Scheme aims to:
- Avoid classroom hunger
- Increase school enrollment
- Increase school attendance
- Improve socialization among castes
- Address malnutrition
Nearly a third of Nepalese children under five are underweight.
At present, Karunika's kitchen prepares over 80 meals a day for children in its stationary facility, as well as several adjacent very poor schools. For many children, this is the only warm, full meal per day.
This project is so wonderful in the context of utilization that we would like to have the means to continue and expand it.
We ask for your kind support.
