Ghana School Feeding Program

$15,000

The Ghana School Feeding Programme (GSFP) is an internationally- and locally-funded program which provides children in public primary schools and kindergartens in the poorest areas of Ghana with one hot, nutritious meal per day, using locally-grown foodstuffs. Local schools must be properly equipped with kitchen and cooking equipment and fuel to be part of this program. This project will equip two selected schools with boreholes to provide potable water, and bio-sanitation toilets to provide biogas for the school kitchens and manure for the school gardens, thereby equipping the schools to participate in the GSFP.
