The Free Food

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actor Gerard Butler, who is a supporter and visited some of our projects in Liberia (the numbers in that clip are out of date, though, Mary’s Meals is currently feeding over 1.2 million children a daily meal, in 15 countries, globally).
