Who are Mary’s Meals?

Malawi Famine, 2002

To have enough to eat and to go to school one day.

59 Million Primary aged children do not attend school

300 Million children suffer from hunger

18,000 children die of hunger related causes every day.

How is Mary’s Meals funded?

Vice Principal Daniel Cooper, Banjeh School Liberia where Mary’s Meals is provided said:

Since Mary’s Meals has come, many children who had stopped attending have returned to

school you can see their enthusiasm!

Magnus has said:

It is amazing just to see the impact one meal has… and the people who are at the forefront of that are the people who make huge sacrifices to get up early, at first light, to make the fires, cook

the porridge and serve the food.

Magnus has said:

Mary’s Meals is a very, very simple concept. It just simply provides one good nourishing meal in a place of education everyday for the world’s poorest children. In every school we’ve gone into now around the world to provide Mary’s

Meals you see the same dramatic results – far more children coming to school, so enrolment increases and then you can

see health benefits, you see academic performance improves.

OUR VISION is that all those who have more than they need, share with those who lack even the most basic things, and

that every child receives one daily meal in their place of education.

OUR MISSION is to enable people to offer their money, goods, skills, time or prayer, and through this involvement,

provide the most effective help to those suffering the effects of extreme poverty in the worlds’ poorest countries.

Thank you for walking this

journey with us.
