Mission

The lunchbox fund is a nonprofit organization focused on funding in-school nutrition programs to vulnerable, food-insecure, and at-risk school children in south africa and mozambique. Our meals offer a behavioral incentive for children to attend school, and enable them to concentrate and learn while there. We work in township and rural areas across south africa and in the gaza province of mozambique, helping children get the education they desperately need to build a life free of poverty for themselves and their families.
