Feeding Programme
HOPE STARTS WITH FOOD
Feed a Child. Change a Future.
For many children in Uganda, hunger is a daily reality. Due to widespread poverty, an estimated 4 in every 10 children go without a meal at lunchtime. Many arrive at school having had no breakfast, making it extremely difficult to concentrate, learn, and reach their full potential.
Imagine being just six years old and spending six hours at school with an empty stomach. While other children focus on their lessons, you struggle with hunger, fatigue, and the pain of not knowing when your next meal will come. Sadly, this is the reality for thousands of children whose parents and caregivers simply cannot afford to provide enough food.
Hunger and malnutrition have devastating effects on a child's health, growth, school attendance, academic performance, and overall development. No child should have to choose between learning and hunger.
Our Feeding Programme
Through our Feeding Programme, Youth With A Vision provides nutritious daily meals to vulnerable and hungry children in schools and foster care homes across the Masaka Region of Uganda.
The children we support receive:
-
A daily lunchtime meal
-
A cup of high-protein maize porridge
-
Essential food supplies for children in foster care and vulnerable households
Every day, schools and community leaders refer children to us who are suffering from hunger and food insecurity. On average, we receive requests to support at least two additional children every day.
Unfortunately, without sufficient funding, we cannot help every child in need.
Regular monthly donations make a life-changing difference. They enable us to provide consistent meals, improve children's health, increase school attendance, and give children the opportunity to focus on their education rather than their hunger.
Creating Long-Term Solutions
While feeding children today is essential, we are also investing in sustainable solutions for tomorrow.
We empower schools and households to establish nutritious Food Forests that provide a reliable and long-term source of food for children and their communities.
Your support helps us provide:
-
Land preparation and cultivation
-
Access to high-yield, disease-resistant crops
-
Fencing materials to protect crops
-
Organic manure and soil improvement materials
-
Pest and disease control supplies
-
Farming tools and equipment
-
Food storage facilities to preserve harvests and reduce waste

These Food Forests help schools and families become more self-sufficient, ensuring children continue to receive nutritious meals for years to come.
How Your Gift Helps
The future of Uganda depends on the children of today. When children are nourished, they can learn, grow, and become the leaders, teachers, health workers, and entrepreneurs of tomorrow.
We invite you to partner with us by making a regular donation. Together, we can ensure that no child has to learn on an empty stomach.
