0 H5C Breakfast Clubs, Kenya & Zambia

The High Five Club continues its support this year of our school “Breakfast Clubs”, in the wildlife-rich Masai Mara in Kenya and South Luangwa in Zambia.

The provision of one nutritious meal a day means that attendance levels at these schools have soared. The children no longer miss class due to being too hungry to walk to school or in their search for food – the latter contributing to the levels of poaching in these wildlife areas.

High Five Club’s first school feeding programme is flourishing. Thank you to Eastbourne College’s ECHO charity for joining hands with H5C members from Day 1 to deliver this over the past few years. Attendance rates have improved from 60% to 99% and this rural school is now in the top 10 school’s in Zambia’s Eastern Province for its exam results. At just £3.70 to feed a child for a whole school year in 2016, this initiative is really changing lives and shows how a little goes a long, long way in Africa.

Working hand in hand with the Burundian NGO Great Lakes Outreach, High Five Club has supported Bravo Ministries with the purchase of a portable Honda generator for their sewing workshop. The new generator means that the women can produce more goods for sale, helping increase their income and enabling them to become self-sufficient and forge a new life for themselves. The generator is allowing young women and girls to be freed from prostitution now and into the future.
