Dear Supporters,
Every day, thousands of children across Pakistan arrive at school hungry, making it harder to focus, learn, and reach their full potential.
Around the world, school meal programs have proven that nutritious meals improve health, attendance, and learning outcomes. Thanks to your support, NourishED is bringing these solutions to the children who need them most.
May 2026 at a glance
- 6,667 meals served in May
- 1,004 students supported
- 187,806+ meals served to date
A global problem with proven solutions
More than 466 million children worldwide receive school meals every day. From Japan and South Korea to India and Brazil, the world's most successful programs follow a similar approach: a balanced meal with a staple, protein, fruits or vegetables, and nutrition education. In Pakistan — where nearly 38% of children under five suffer from stunting — these lessons matter more than ever.
A global approach to better nutrition
- Japan — nutritious meals paired with healthy-eating education
- China — daily egg and milk included in school meals
- India — balanced meals using local ingredients at scale
- NourishED — balanced meals featuring fruits, milk, protein-rich foods, and locally prepared dishes
Global lessons, real impact
"Before I started receiving fruits and milk at school, I used to get really bad headaches. Since joining the program, those headaches have stopped, and I feel healthier and stronger every day. I enjoy coming to school, learning new things, and spending time with my friends. Thank you to everyone who helps make this possible."

Warm regards,
