Meal Program Ensures Continued Education
School Feeding Initiative Helps Children Continue Schooling
Rise Against Hunger India, in partnership with Colonel Hills High School, Bangalore has been supporting a School Feeding Initiative for the past 2 years. Under this Initiative, 250 children receive their mid-day meals regularly. Earlier, many of these children would bring some snacks and wait till the end of class to go back home to have their meals. The school feeding initiative has helped children get healthy and nutritious meals on a regular basis. The school authorities have tracked their progress and observed qualitative improvement in academic achievement of the students.
