School lunches pass 55 weeks at Kaddaiyadampan RC Maha Vidyalayam, Mannar
More than 40,000 hot lunches have been served to children from an underprivileged community, where over 90% of students come from low-income families.
The ACT Foundation continues our services for the students of Kaddaiyadampan Roman Catholic Maha Vidyalayam, Mannar.
Over 40,150 hot lunches have been provided to these kids over the past 55 weeks under our School Nutrition Meals Program.
This school serves children from the local underprivileged community, with more than 90% of the students coming from families living under the poverty line. This program has focused on secondary school children aged 11 to 16.
The meals are 100% plant-based, cooked on-site every day at the school kitchen from locally sourced ingredients, and served to the children during the lunch intervals.
While this project directly meets the needs of the students, it will also relieve the families from the economic stress they have on their school-going children.
The cost of this program is sponsored by a kind-hearted donor group from UK.
