PROGRAM
Food and Nutrition Program
At Divine Hearts Foundation, our W.A.S.H program is dedicated to changing this reality by drilling boreholes and constructing water wells to provide clean and safe water to communities in need.
Food and Nutrition Program
At Divine Hearts Foundation, we believe that access to nutritious food is a basic human right essential for the health and development of children and families. Our Food and Nutrition Program addresses hunger and malnutrition in Uganda through a comprehensive approach, providing vital support to those in need.
How Our Program Works
Daily School Meals
We provide nutritious meals to children in schools, ensuring they have the energy to focus on their studies and participate fully in their education.
Family Food Packages
We distribute food packages to families facing food insecurity, particularly during times of drought, economic hardship, or other crises. These packages include staples such as grains, beans, and cooking oil, ensuring families have access to balanced nutrition.
Community Kitchens
We plan to build community kitchens to serve hot meals to vulnerable populations, including the elderly and disabled. These kitchens will provide a vital safety net, offering nutritious meals and essential support to those facing food insecurity. This initiative will strengthen our commitment to fostering community resilience and ensuring that no one goes hungry in our communities.
Agricultural Support
We support local farmers with seeds, tools, and training to enhance food production. By promoting sustainable agricultural practices, we empower them to improve crop yields and livelihoods. As a nonprofit, we aim to purchase land for extensive agriculture, enabling us to scale our impact and ensure long-term food security for the communities we serve. Impact of Your Support.
