23 percent of children in South Africa live in severe child food poverty.

UNICEF – Child Food Poverty Report 2024, 06 June 2024

Across South Africa, millions of young children face daily hunger, a crisis that robs them of the ability to learn, grow, and thrive. Many preschools in low-income communities simply cannot afford nutritious meals.

One in four children under five is stunted due to chronic malnutrition (UNICEF, 2024). Without proper nutrition, the cycle of poverty begins with an empty stomach.

Ladles of Love’s Nourish Our Children Programme is changing this. We deliver two healthy meals a day to preschool children and their teachers, ensuring they have the energy to learn and grow.

Right now, we feed 9,000 children across Western Cape, Northern Cape, and Gauteng and the impact is life changing. This season, our goal is to support 12,000 children for 2026.

Why your gift matters

Consistent nutrition doesn’t just change a child’s life – it uplifts entire communities. When preschools no longer worry about food costs, they can invest in educational materials, teacher training, and salaries.

Healthy food every day to a child at preschool is the greatest gift of all.

Food is the foundation for learning, emotional well-being, and future success.

Individual Giving:

Sign Up for R300 per month or R3,600 per year.

For every child you feed, you secure a future for all our children.

Corporate/SME Partnerships:

Businesses can make an even bigger impact by partnering with us to pair with a preschool. Your support will provide meals for every child and teacher in that school – and help break the cycle of poverty.

Together, we can nourish children, strengthen preschools, and build a brighter future for South Africa.
