MAFARINHA´S SCHOOL

We are in the kitchen!

It is in Sofala where we find Mafarinha´s School. We started by building a kitchen and then implemented the school food programme - Kook4all.

THEN?

Once the kitchen was on full speed to nurture and feed these children, we found so many other needs!

The kitchen, finished and already serving healthy meals, became our entrance into the school.

It was through the Japan´s Embassy funding that we started working on other necessities. We built two classrooms so that children become more motivated to go to school and learn, as well as the access to improved facilities. 

Then we found a security issue. The school´s compound had become a shortcut to the local community's daily tasks. Therefore, we built a wall that surrounds the school, protecting the children and making Mafarinha a much safer place!

We also built a storage room to support the kitchen.

The project MAFARINHA´S SCHOOL was created to become a path to end extreme poverty.

Why?

So children get school meals and grow healthy;

so children feel more motivated to go to school with the new facilities;

so children feel good and safe in the school that welcomes them.

It is through the school´s awareness, to accomplish all these goals, that we believe Mafarinha´s School has improved facilities, allowing children to dream, aspire and reach their goals!
