No Food Today…Again

Unfortunately, David's situation is all too common in the Kenyan slum he calls home. Until recently, David's mother searched for work—and food—every day, while David waited at home alone. Some days she succeeded. Many days David went hungry.

Unfortunately, David's situation is all too common in the Kenyan slum he calls home. Until recently, David's mother searched for work—and food—every day, while David waited at home alone. Some days she succeeded. Many days David went hungry.

Thankfully, young David now attends a Christian school called Jocada Academy. If you could see the dangerous, trash-strewn streets of David's Nairobi slum for yourself, "hope" would be the last word that would come to your mind. But that's exactly what Jocada is: A light and a hope in a desperate place. Jesus is at work here. David and 216 other young children receive life-changing love and education at Jocada.

But David and many of his fellow students still suffer from hunger, making it difficult for them to learn. You can change that reality for one child.

By giving up just one lunch per month, you can provide one lunch each school day for David or one of his friends for an entire month.

It's this easy: you can provide one child at Jocada with nutritious lunches for only $6.75—for an entire month!

An entire school year lasts about 9 months for the children at Jocada. $6.75 will feed one child (like 4-year-old David) for an entire month. That means it costs about $61 to provide hot, healthy lunches for one child for an entire school year.

In total, 112 students are involuntarily skipping lunch each day (and are lucky if they eat at all when they get home). Our goal is to feed all of them a daily, nutritious lunch. We have the knowhow and the ability to get the food to them, but we just lack the funding. Can you step in and feed one child?

Will you consider skipping ONE lunch, once per month, for the next 9 months? If you spend $6.75 per lunch, for example, this will enable you to send $61 to feed a child like David for his entire school year! If you typically spend twice that, you could feed two children!

Or, if skipping one lunch each month seems too difficult (or cannot for health reasons), will you simply sacrifice $61 to feed one child at Jocada Academy for a year?

$6.75 is all it takes to provide each child with a healthy lunch for an entire month. Can you help us feed one?

Yes! I'd like to provide nutritious lunches with my gift of:
