From Hunger to Hope
Immaculate's story
Not long ago, 8-year-old Immaculate in Uganda suffered from itchy skin, and wasn't always able to focus in school. Although her mother Jane was a subsistence farmer, Immaculate did not always have access to good nutrition. An unbalanced diet was negatively affecting Immaculate’s health.
Everything changed when their community partnered with CFTC. Donor support helped build a new school with a feeding program, and Jane began learning about balanced nutrition and sustainable farming. This made a big difference for Immaculate.
Now, Immaculate gets a nutritious meal every day at school, and Jane uses her new skills to provide a balanced diet for her children at home. Today Immaculate is healthy and excels at school.
This was all made possible through donations from generous Canadians like you. Help change the life of a child like Immaculate with a donation today.
We need your help to provide 500,000 meals to feed children.
Give today to make this goal a reality!
