Due to poverty, neediness and hunger, every 4 in 10 children in Arusha miss out on anything to eat at lunchtime. For those children in schools, many will have had no breakfast, and they find it difficult to concentrate and gain an education.
Imagine a 6-year-old spending 6 hours at school with an interval of 30 minutes break spent mainly yawning, without any meal simply because of poverty! The pressing poverty has forced many caretakers and less privileged parents to starve their children. Malnutrition and undernourishment greatly affect children’s health and development, attention spurn, performance and ability to learn which increases the number of street children in Arusha.
Through the The community regeneration outreach , Travel for charity Tanzania often organizes and providing food stuffs to different schools, centers and orphanages, a cup of high protein maize flour porridge, to starving children in schools and foster care, based in the Arusha Tanzania.
On average, schools and the community refer to us
2 children every day in need of food, and we can’t provide food to all of them without your support. It requires greater financial resources to feed theses community. However, as you can imagine, giving monthly makes a huge impact on the feeding program, and enables us to feed the starving children every day.
