Mary’s Meals

This charity founded in a shed in Argyll, now helps to provide nutritious meals in 18 different countries, including Malawi, Yemen & Haiti.  With costs rising by an unprecedented 20%, this is the largest increase known in the charity’s 20 year history.  The promise of food attracts children into the classroom so alongside being feed they are able to access eduction.

Until 31st January 2023 donations to Mary’s Meals will be matched by a group of generous supporters, up to £1.5 million.  This means that any donation will have twice the impact and help feed desperately hungry children.  To find it more about the “Double the love Campaign – visit marysmeals.org.uk
