People can’t learn when they are hungry. Children in Bolivia are no exception. Six of every ten Bolivians live on less than $2 per day, making it one of Latin America’s poorest countries. Malnutrition always accompanies poverty. However, with minimal investment, PROJECT CONCERN INTERNATIONAL has succeeded in changing the future for school children and their families with projects such as Proyecto de Atencion Educacional. There, agronomists train or assist teachers, parents and students to plant gardens, build hen houses and raise chickens for egg production. These foods provide healthy breakfasts for the children, which, in turn, improve their ability to concentrate in class. They also learn from the hands-on lessons involved in farm management. This project has the potential to help 5,000 people each year and provide sustainable means for families to improve their lives.
