For Brian, school means not just education, but that he eats well for five days a week

Without Sargy, Brian wouldn’t be in school at all. His father is dead and his mother is very unwell. In
this situation, finding money for food is a problem and paying school fees is an impossibility.

“The child could not enrol in other schools because his parents could not afford to pay,” says
Samwel Okomo, director of Sargy Education Centre. “So, they applied at Sargy and their boy was
accepted. This has relieved his mother from worrying about food.”

The children at Sargy receive both breakfast and lunch, giving them the nutrition required to grow
strong, to study and to play sports. The food supplied contains all the components of a balanced
diet, with fresh vegetables for vitamins and minerals, rice and ugali for energy, and peas and beans
for protein.

Samwel says: “Brian is in good health and is performing well at school.”

Sargy Education Centre serves a low-income community on the shores of Lake Victoria, Kenya.
Currently, over 300 students attend the school, receiving quality education and those all-important
two meals a day, enabling them to grow, learn and play.
