A daily meal is READ's single most powerful tool for keeping children in school. Families who know their child will be fed are three times more likely to send them — especially daughters.

A hungry child cannot learn. A fed child cannot be stopped. One meal is the difference between a future and the absence of one.
Feed a child. Keep a child in school. Change a life.

Impact Story · READ Foundation Yemen
Your donation funds a daily hot breakfast for a child attending a READ school in Yemen — directly reducing hunger, combating malnutrition, and ensuring every child arrives at their desk with the energy to learn.
Families who know their child will receive a meal are three times more likely to send them to school — especially girls. The breakfast programme is READ's most powerful and immediate enrolment tool in Yemen.
READ employs local women from within each school community to prepare and serve meals, keeping money circulating locally. The programme is community-owned, culturally trusted, and designed to continue long after the crisis ends.
