You can’t underestimate the value of a hot meal for a hungry child in a slum.

 

At many of our ministry locations we provide a simple meal in conjunction with the sports activity.  It keeps the kids coming. It’s a critically important part of connecting with the poorest kids. In some cases, we also provide food supplies to families of children we serve.

“Luckily for me, I joined SOM. I joined at the very start (that is about 2006). Because I was too young to play soccer, I joined Coach Samson who played with little children my age. Soon afterwards I was enrolled for the lunch porridge. That was an upgrade - the porridge was hot when it was served. I was not used to hot food.”

During the Covid pandemic, there have been huge challenges for literally all of the children and families we serve. As we have resources, our teams in Uganda, Kenya and El Salvador have purchased and distributed food in bulk to as many needy families as possible.
