What we do

Mary’s Meals serves nutritious school meals to children living in some of the world’s poorest communities. The promise of a good meal attracts these hungry children into the classroom, giving them the energy to learn and hope for a better future.

We are already feeding more than two million children every school day – and, together, we can reach the next hungry child waiting for Mary’s Meals.  It costs just £15.90 to feed a child in a place of education for a whole school year.

South Sudan

South Sudan is currently ranked 185 out of 189 countries in the Human Development Index (HDI) and is one of the most under-developed countries on earth. Almost 43% of the population of South Sudan live below the International Poverty Line ($1.90 per day) and as much as 55% of the population don’t have enough food to eat.

Over one third of all children under-five years old suffer chronic malnutrition and 68% of primary school aged children are out of school – the highest figure anywhere in the world and a stark reminder of the need for Mary’s Meals in South Sudan.

Two Million Milestone Logo

We're now feeding 2,279,941 children every school day.

But more than 64 million primary school-age children are out of school around the world. In order to survive, they have to work or beg. Even if they do make it into the classroom, hunger affects their ability to learn.
