Sample
Healthy food, brighter future
Johan is a boy from a small village in Malawi. He lives with his parents and three younger sisters. The family depends entirely on their small piece of land. In some years, the harvest was so bad that they could only eat one simple meal a day. Johan often went to bed hungry, which made him feel tired and weak all the time.One day, a World Food Programme (WFP) officer visited Johan's village school to assess the children's health. He saw that many children, like Johan, were undernourished.He explained that good
nutrition is essential for children to grow, learn and stay healthy.Soon after, a “School Meals” programme began at Johan's school, supported by WFP. Now, Johan receives a nutritious meal every school day. He has more energy and gets sick less often. He can focus in class and play football in the afternoon. His family is grateful to WFP for the vital support.Johan says that he feels stronger and happier. He dreams of becoming a farmer in the future, using new methods to grow plenty of food for his family and his whole community.
