It is commonly known that a hungry child cannot learn. It is difficult to concentrate and they lack energy. The Vieux Fort Infant School has approximately 40 Children who attend school regularly without anything to eat. That is they do not have breakfast before leaving home and are not provided with snacks or lunch.
There is a school feeding programme providing lunch and snacks for impoverished children. The cost of lunch is EC$1.00 per day. The parents of these children do not have the finances to provide the children with even $1.00 a day, $5.00 per week.
The Vieux Fort Children's Society is asking for your help to feed the children in Vieux Fort schools. All we need is a regular commitment of $1.00 a day per child. If you can provide more then perhaps we can stretch to assisting with snacks as well as lunch.
You can also donate healthy non perishable snacks and food items to our Charity Shop marked clearly school snacks, and we will ensure it is delivered to the school. Please bring all donations to our Charity Shop on the corner of Clarke Street and Hospital Road. All donations are greatly appreciated.
Thank you for reading this article and we look forward to your support.
