The Mathare Valley Slum, in the heart of the city of Nairobi, holds more than half a million people. Living conditions are horrific, with no basic infrastructure like a sewer system. Disease runs rampant. The government has already declared the food situation a national disaster, and the need here is critical. The most affected are the children, many of whom are orphans. The education of some children at Mathare is made possible by our feeding program which has kept a majority of the children in school and off the streets. This is the only meal most of the children receive all day. Every day 1,300 children from ages 4 to 15 are fed once.
