Lunch At School
Methodology
Currently, we are collaborating with schools located in the vicinity of the SVSI office and within the project area to provide a healthy lunch program for the students. The program involves supplying the necessary ingredients to prepare the meals leasing a nearby plot of land for vegetable production, and closely monitoring the initiative. Additionally, the local government provides the necessary funding for the program, which is deposited into SVSI's account. The local community takes the lead in preparing the lunch for the children.
Achievement
Specifically, for the SVSI project areas, the programs improved nutrition, increased school attendance, and better academic performance in the children. It has also created economic benefits and reduced gender disparities in education. Overall, this program has a positive impact on the health, education, and economic wellbeing of the community in rural areas of Nepal.
