Feeding Minds, Fueling Futures
Every child deserves the chance to learn on a full stomach. At NourishED, we provide daily nutritious meals to schoolchildren in Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire. By fighting classroom hunger, we help children stay in school, focus in class, and thrive.
Hunger steals education. A child who comes to class without food cannot concentrate, participate, or succeed. A simple meal changes everything: attendance rises, test scores improve, and more children—especially girls—remain in school.
For many, the school meal is their only reliable source of daily nutrition, helping them grow healthier and stronger. And because we buy food from local farmers, school meals also strengthen families and communities.

Supporting local farmers
NourishED builds school feeding programs that are nutritious, affordable, and rooted in the communities we serve. We use locally grown produce to prepare wholesome meals children enjoy, while supporting farmers and local markets.
Meals are cooked fresh in schools or community kitchens, ensuring both quality and safety. Parents and teachers are involved every step of the way, creating ownership and accountability. With careful planning, we keep costs low and impact high, making every donor contribution count.
We begin in the district of Yakro with a bold but simple goal: ensure that every child in our pilot schools receives a hot, nutritious lunch each day. From there, we will expand to reach thousands of children across Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana. Our vision is clear—a future where no child has to choose between eating and learning, and where daily school meals become a foundation for education across West Africa.
We are driven by one mission: to end classroom hunger. We design programs that are transparent, cost-effective, and sustainable, ensuring that donor support translates directly into meals for children. With your help, NourishED can transform classrooms, empower communities, and create a lasting impact on education and opportunity.
Your support can change a child's story today. A small gift can provide a meal; a larger partnership can expand our reach to new schools and regions. Whether you are an individual donor or a foundation, your contribution helps us feed minds and fuel futures.
