Do you know that feeling? A familiar scent from your childhood wafts up to your nose and you feel as happy as you did back then. That's exactly how the students at Umoja Muehlbauer Academy feel when they smell school meals. <\/p>\n

The women's village of UMOJA in Samburu County, Kenya, founded by Rebecca Lolosoli, has been running the Umoja Muehlbauer Academy as a private elementary school for boys and girls since May 2014. The school offers children in the women's village and the surrounding area the chance of a better life. In addition to the opportunity to receive a very good primary education, the daily school meal means that most children are able to eat something at all, as their families can barely earn a living in the steppe landscape of Samburu County. For some parents, the meals are a major reason for sending their children to school. That is why we have been supporting the provision of meals for schoolchildren in Umoja since 2017. <\/p>\n

Meals are usually meat-free and consist of bread and tea or morning porridge, a cereal porridge that is often prepared with water instead of milk. Lunch consists of ugali, a stiff, unseasoned cereal porridge \u2013 usually made from corn \u2013 and a bean stew. Lunch is sometimes supplemented with fresh vegetables. The meals are nutritious and contribute significantly to the healthy development of the children. <\/p>\n

Since 2021, preparation has been particularly resource-efficient and hygienic thanks to sponsored cooking stoves.<\/p>\n

We would be delighted if you would actively support us with school meals. If you would like to make a one-time or regular donation, you can do so with any amount.
\nYou can also use the following calculation as a guide: The school year spans 37 calendar weeks per year. The cost of meals amounts to \u20ac5.60 per week per child. This corresponds to
\n. \u20ac207.20 per year
\n. \u20ac103.60 every six months
\n. quarterly \u20ac51.50
\n. \u20ac17.27 per month<\/p>\n

For us, it amounts to 57 cents a day, but for the children at the Umoja Muehlbauer Academy, these meals are a real blessing and, for some, even vital. If you would like to help, please transfer your donation to Donation account of the Friends of Umoja<\/a>

Perhaps the donation for school meals could also be an alternative gift<\/strong> ?
\nFor people who already have everything material.
\nFor people who don't know what they want as a gift.
\nFor children\/grandchildren with whom you want to talk about children in other parts of the world.
\nFor customers you don't want to give ballpoint pens or notepads to again.<\/p>\n

\"\"Here we present a certificate<\/strong><\/a> bereit, die Sie sich herunterladen, f\u00fcr die Beschenkten ausdrucken und ausf\u00fcllen k\u00f6nnen. <\/p>\n

Another form of support would be to download and forward our Flyer<\/strong> here (german)<\/a> or here (english). <\/a>In doing so, you will be promoting the Friends' project to the people around you and giving them the opportunity to get involved in helping the children in Umoja. <\/p>\n

Whatever you decide, you will be bringing a lot of happiness to the children at the Umoja Muehlbauer Academy!<\/p>\n

Thank you very much for your support!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
