As I’m sure you’ll remember last Nov we started a school-feeding
programme at the Fitawrari Public School.
We built and fitted out a kitchen and washroom and we renovated an
existing room to act as the dining room.
We contracted four cooks chosen from the most needy mothers of
Abugida. During the term time 113
children of the primary school have breakfast, lunch and tea, chosen from the
orphans, those who are HIV+ and those with very difficult family
situations. We also provide breakfast
for all the 160 children of the preschool; the most needy of those also have
lunch and tea.
This is the first summer that we have had the kitchen
operational at Fitawrari and here we attach some photos. It is the rainy season and it is cold in
Akaki and for this reason the dining room fulfils a second function of keeping
the children warm. The dining room
is also operating at the Biru Tesfa preschool where there are 100 children
using this facility. We are
awaiting photos.
