Nutrition Program

You can't learn
when you're hungry.

In rural Guatemala, nearly half of indigenous children suffer from chronic malnutrition. We make sure every child eats before they learn.

So we feed
them.

Every child in every classroom receives a daily nutritional supplement, Chispuditos. No child in our program goes home hungry.

550+ children fed daily
45 classrooms served
5 departments

“When the children are nourished, everything changes. They pay more attention, they participate, and best of all, they smile.”

— Community facilitator, Chimaltenango

A full stomach
changes everything.
