Dalmally-based charity Mary’s Meals has received a £425,000 boost from the People’s Postcode Lottery, helping to provide life-changing school meals for some of the world’s poorest children. Mary’s Meals runs school feeding programmes in 15 countries to enable chronically hungry children to gain an education that can free them from poverty in the future. Part of the funding award is being used to provide 9,000 impoverished children with daily meals for a whole school year.
The remaining money will support the development of Mary’s Meals as it grows to reach more hungry children. Along with essential investment to strengthen infrastructure, the latest funding boost is being used to deliver key projects in startdevelopment, which includes work to protect and promote the founding values of the charity.
