About
Our mission is to improve child nutrition and education outcomes in rural Mozambique.

The school lunch program partners with local farmer associations, facilitating access to training and improved inputs, and then provides a stable anchor buyer through the school lunch program's procurement. In doing so, our goal is to improved child nutrition and community food security for a more prosperous future.
