Build an Orphan Feeding Kitchen

Korah is one of the poorest communities in the world, built around a large trash dump that people have used for years to find food and to scrap plastics for money. Originally a small community for lepers, Korah has now grown to over 120,000 people, all within a few miles’ radius.

One month ago, the trash dump was moved away from Korah. This was for a good reason, so new government programs could create energy from the trash. But the removal of the trash damp has been absolutely devastating for the people of Korah, who had depended on the mountains of trash to mine for scraps and food.

Suddenly children and families who were barely getting by now have no possible way to generate monies needed to buy the even the smallest portions of food and clean water. And those children without families, those who have relied on relatives and villagers, are now the most vulnerable of all.

We have been partnering with Life To Live for Korah, a grassroots feeding program in the village, for a while now. This dire situation has prompted them to open up a feeding center to try to feed more children as soon as possible. To date, they have made food right on the spot in a small mud home – but with so many more children to feed, they really need help building out an actual kitchen to feed more children and to store food safely.

Please consider supporting to this project, so that we can start making a difference right away in the lives of these children.

100% of donations to this project go directly to build this kitchen, which will include:

• A Water Filter, critical for this area
• A Refrigerator, to offer children the opportunity to eat fresh food
• A Stove, to not only cook but also be used to bake bread, an opportunity for revenue generation
• Hand Sanitizers, to help stop the spread of diseases and illness
• Storage Facilities, to keep food stored safely
• A Microwave, to expand cooking capabilities
• Dishware, silverware, and cups
• Food Supplies to stock the kitchen with staples such as: Teff (local grain), Rice, Pasta, Flour, Oil, Potatoes, Seasonings, etc.
