Food Program

The program provides healthy lunches to students on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays.

Food Program

The school feeding programme at Rejoice Education Center is a life-changing initiative fully funded by Vasion. It officially began on 28th April 2025, a day that will always be remembered and celebrated by our school community. The programme provides nutritious lunches to learners every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, creating a sense of routine, care, and nourishment. On Mondays and Wednesdays, the learners enjoy rice, beans, and cabbage, while Tuesdays have become especially popular as they are treated to rice, beef, and cabbage — now famously known among learners as "Meat Tuesday." This programme has brought renewed energy and hope into the lives of both learners and teachers

Benefits of the Program:

  • Ensures learners receive balanced and nutritious meals, supporting physical growth and mental focus.
  • Provides financial relief to parents by reducing lunch expenses.
  • Improves classroom attendance, concentration, and motivation among learners.
  • Strengthens community bonds as parents, teachers, and learners work towards a common goal.

How It’s Impacted the Kids:

The impact of the feeding programme on the children has been deeply felt. Many learners now come to school eagerly, knowing that they will not go hungry during the day. Some who used to miss classes frequently are now consistent in attendance, and there is a noticeable improvement in class participation and academic performance. Learners express joy and gratitude — they even look forward to the lunch break bell. For some, the food they receive at school is their main or only reliable meal of the day. The programme has become a source of hope and encouragement, inspiring children to dream big, work hard, and stay in school. As onelearner put it, “Make sure we never lack lunch forever — and God will bless you.”

Exceeding Expectations with Every Interaction

Hyline, Teacher

"This programme has become a source of hope for many learners. It has helped them develop a love for school. Before the feeding programme began, many learners used to miss school frequently. But now, the classroom is always full. I used to provide food for some learners myself, but nowadays, I’m able to save a few coins."

Ryan Ochoe, Learner

"Meat Tuesday is my favourite day! I will work hard, become an engineer, and help my parents. I no longer miss classes like I used to. Please don’t change anything — just make sure we never lack lunch, ever. God will surely bless you for this!"

Mercy Maweu Learner

"What I love about school lunch is the balanced diet and the delicious food. The portions are enough — sometimes I even take some home before Mum finishes cooking, so I have something to eat before supper is ready. Nowadays, I really look forward to hearing the lunch  break bell. If we could get fruits too, I would enjoy it even more. Thank you so much!

Pauline, Teacher

"This was one of the most thoughtful projects introduced. My classes usually take place in the afternoon, and I’ve observed that on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, learners show highlevels of concentration in my subjects. Their performance has greatly improved. Learners now enjoy learning, and parents are happier too — they no longer have to worry about lunch. Thank you, Vasion, for this impactful initiative."

Faith Kwamboka, Learner

"I love Meat Tuesday! Nowadays, I don’t go hungry — I’m always sure there will be lunch. This has really motivated me. I want to work hard in school so I can help my parents in the future. Everything is great... I just wish we could have chicken too!

Jackline, Teacher

"The feeding programme brings true happiness — it’s where our learners now draw their joy. The 12:40 p.m. bell means so much to them; everyone eagerly waits for it. Parents are also
benefiting, as they’re now able to save a few coins. Today, every parent wants their child to be  part of Rejoice. We strongly wish for a five-day feeding programme. It would make a huge  difference to the learners, the parents, the teachers, and Rejoice as a whole."
