Money well spent - how the donation of only 10€ benefits children threatened by hunger

FoodforEducation_picture[1].png

The global rise of food prices certainly made it harder for international help agencies to tackle the problem of hunger and the far-reaching negative effects for individuals and communities affected by it.

However, the World Food Programme’s updated figures about the impact of a 10€ donation (equalling not even 15$) illustrate that even such a little amount of money has a significant impact.

The contribution of 10€…

  • Feeds one school child for 63 days in Laos.
  • Feeds one school child for 70 days in Colombia
  • Feeds one school child for 73 days in Nicaragua.
  • Feeds one school child for 77 days in Ghana.
  • Feeds one school child for 92 days in Kenya.
  • Could feed one school child for 112 days in Ethiopia.

If these facts encourage you to donate you are most welcome to do so!
