Nutrition Initiative

Delivering daily meals to orphaned children—because a well‑fed child can learn, grow, and contribute.

A Meal That Matters

Since 2016, our Nutrition Initiative has provided staple meals to children in South Sudan, Kenya, Ethiopia, and Pakistan. These meals aren’t just about filling bellies—they’re about giving children the strength to attend school, concentrate in class, and eagerly pursue their future. In many communities, our food aid may be their only meal of the day.

Vision & 2026 Goals

What We’re Aiming to Achieve:

In 2025, we aim to provide over 500,000 meals to 1,978 orphaned children across South Sudan, Ethiopia, Kenya, and Pakistan. With a total funding need of $101,836, this initiative ensures consistent food distribution throughout the year—even in places where o

How It Works:

We collaborate with trusted local partners to operate feeding programs at schools and care centers. Local teams manage meal preparation and distribution, ensuring health and consistency. Donations cover ingredients, logistics, and administrative support for these vital programs.

Why It Matters:

For many children we serve, this may be their only meal of the day. Without it, school attendance drops, energy fades, and futures dim. A warm meal doesn’t just feed the body—it opens the door to learning, growth, and dignity.

Key Goals:

1

Serve 650,000 meals in 2026

2

Feed 2,300 orphaned children

3

Raise $129,000 to provide Food Aid

Nourishing Hope Around the World

Active Projects

Aweil Food Aid (South Sudan)

In Aweil, South Sudan, local volunteers deliver daily meals to over 3,800 children through schools and an orphanage. For many, it’s the only meal they receive. Since 2016, Global Orphan Relief has invested over $700,000 to support this life-saving initiative—bringing nutrition, increasing school enrollment, and renewing hope for families in crisis

Punjab Food Aid (Pakistan)

The Punjab feeding center featured in the Global Orphan Relief story is located in Punjab, Pakistan. The outreach was part of a Christian ministry effort to support vulnerable children through nighttime food distribution and prayer gatherings. If you're thinking about how to frame this for a global audience or want to highlight cross-cultural impact, I can help tailor the messaging.
