For children, hunger is especially devastating, according to Feeding America, “Hunger can have serious implications for children’s physical and mental health, academic achievement and future economic prosperity.
Research shows an association between food insecurity and delayed development in young children, risk of chronic illnesses like asthma and anemia and behavioral problems like hyperactivity, anxiety and aggression in school-age children.”
BiscoMisr as a part of global company Kellogg is expanding feeding programs in Egypt helping children reach their full potential.
Biscomisr is partnering with the Egyptian Food Bank for the fifth year to fund a kitchen at the El Demerdash primary school in Cairo, providing 600 children with a daily hot-meal.
