No child should go to school hungry.
A decade ago, malnutrition was one of the biggest threats to children’s growth and development worldwide, particularly developing countries like Rwanda.
Over the years, Rwanda has made remarkable progress in reducing child malnutrition. Stunting among children under five has fallen substantially, however stunting, other forms of malnutrition and food insecurity remain challenges, particularly for vulnerable and low-income families.
At HEZA Initiative , we believe that progress should not stop at treating malnutrition. We need to ask a bigger question:
How do we make sure children have access to nutritious food today, and families have the means to sustain it tomorrow?
This is why we have continued to look for partners who share the same vision: that nutrition is not just about food; it is about health, education, dignity and livelihoods.
That is where Société Commerciale Gabonaise de Réassurance an important partner in this journey.
Together, we are working to make nutrition more sustainable by supporting Early Childhood Development (ECD) centres with nutritious food, while creating opportunities for parents particularly women in saving groups, to generate income that can help sustain balanced diets and meet other basic household needs.
As part of this commitment, we contributed a poultry and rabbit farming facility to support food production, nutrition and household livelihoods.
Because a child should not have to choose between learning and hunger.
No child should go to school hungry. No family should be trapped in a cycle where they cannot afford nutritious food.
Let’s build solutions that feed children today while empowering families to sustain better nutrition tomorrow.
Let’s all join Operation Starvation.
