Giving Tuesday- Help Us Feed Hungry Children

At Mary’s Meals, we believe that no child should face hunger in school. Our mission is simple yet profoundly impactful: to provide a daily meal in a place of education, helping to nourish hungry children from vulnerable communities so that they can focus on their studies.  

This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to join our mission and help us reach even more hungry children. And for every dollar you give, a generous donor will match your donation with an additional two dollars—TRIPLING THE IMPACT OF YOUR GIFT!  

Why Giving Tuesday Matters  

Every year, Giving Tuesday offers a unique chance for people to support causes they believe in. For us, it’s a day filled with hope and opportunity. We are blessed by the generosity of our supporters who help us reach more than 2.4 million children across the globe with a nutritious daily meal at school.  

Giving Tuesday is more than just a day—it’s a global movement of generosity that inspires people to make a positive impact. It gives us the opportunity to expand our reach to more schools and communities where children desperately need a reliable meal.  

Hunger is one of the biggest barriers to education, and without adequate nourishment, children can’t focus, learn, or dream. But for just $25.20, we can provide school meals for a child for an entire year, allowing them to come to school, engage in their studies, and build a future filled with possibility. 

The Impact of a Daily School Meal 

When a child receives a daily meal at school, the effects are profound. Not only does the meal encourage them to stay in school, but it also gives them the energy to learn and grow.  

Over the years, we’ve seen how providing a meal has boosted enrollment, attendance, concentration, and performance in schools. For many children, school meals are a lifeline that brings hope and a sense of security.  

Students who once faced chronic hunger are now thriving, driven by a sense of hope and purpose. They dream of becoming doctors, teachers, engineers—visions that are possible because someone chose to give. Each of these stories is a testament to the life-changing power of a single meal, provided with love and compassion.
