Peace Run

Mary’s Meals provides a daily meal in a place of education for children living in some of the world’s poorest communities, where hunger and poverty prevent children from gaining an education. The meal attracts children to the classroom, and the education that they receive can be their ladder out of poverty in the future. Currently, Mary’s Meals Canada provides these meals to children living in Malawi, Africa, where the cost to feed a child a daily meal for one year is just $16. You can visit our website for more information. On our website there are a couple of short films that highlight our work and here is an even shorter clip (2 minutes) about Mary’s Meals featuring actor Gerard Butler, who is a supporter and visited some of our projects in Liberia (the numbers in that clip are out of date, though, Mary’s Meals is currently feeding over 1.2 million children a daily meal, in 15 countries, globally).

Mary's Meals is a registered charity, multi-cultural, global movement with over 100,000 volunteers worldwide. Mary's Meals sets up school feeding programs in some of the world's poorest communities where poverty and hunger prevent children from gaining an education. Currently, we are feeding over 2 million children daily in over 18, of the world's poorest countries. It costs just $22 to feed a child for a whole school year. Committed to keeping our running costs low, from every $1 earned, we spend at least 93 cents on charitable activities. With 61 million children still out of school and many more chronically hungry, our work continues.
