Nutrition Program

​​The Nutrition Program has been running smoothly since May of 2018. 
Christina first visited Uganda in 2015, and went back again in February of 2017. She had the opportunity to spend time with the Director of Nakaseeta Foundation Primary Christian School, John Joseph Mutegeki, who has become like family. During the time she was there, they discussed the lives of the children at the school. Due to their financial circumstances, the children were eating only one meal while at school, a small bowl of porridge, and for many of them, that was the only meal they would eat during the day.
The more they talked, they realized that for $500 USD/month, all 225 children enrolled at that time could receive two meals/day, a bowl of porridge, as well as a traditional Ugandan dish of posho and beans.  When she returned from Uganda, she began the work of opening a nonprofit organization called Hope Restored Christian Ministries, and almost immediately was able to procure $500/month in sponsorship. Beginning in May 2018, all the children and staff at the school began eating two meals daily. Factoring in inflation and increased school enrollment,  $650/month pays for the price of 2 meals/day for more than 400 children at the school, as well as each of the staff.
