Nutrition Center
We all know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
We have seen this truth play out in our learning centers as children come in the doors hungry and struggle to concentrate and learn. They repeatedly asked for food.
Both our nutrition centers (Hoya Del Camino and Mira Flora 2) address this problem as all the children in our learning centers are fed a meal. Rice, beans, spaghetti, sardines and salami are just some of the items given to help take away the hunger. The spark that comes to their eyes when receiving this food melts your heart. The meal does not only feed their body but also their mind and Spirit.
You see, most children are responsible for buying their food (if possible) then preparing and cooking their food. They need to know how to use the stove or start a fire as some still cook over charcoal. Don’t forget the cleanup of washing the dishes! Making a meal is not an easy task. Now these children don’t have to carry the burden of that. They come hungry and leave with a smile and full stomach!
