About This Organization

10635694_877200748980741_2787887519664951405_nThe Lunchbox Fund (LBF) is a Non-Profit Organization that focuses on fostering education via nutrition by providing a daily meal to orphaned and at-risk school children in township and rural areas of South Africa, a country where 56% of all children live in poverty. LBF believes that tackling undernutrition in school children is urgent, feasible and affordable. Providing the right nutrients and care through the early years unlocks the potential of every child. Investing in children’s nutrition has the power to trigger big social and economic changes. Children with well-developed brains and bodies have better life chances: they live longer and healthier lives, they do better in school, and they grow into healthy and productive adults. TheLunchbox Fund has been in operation for for 10 years. In 2017 LBF will deliver over 4.2 million hot, nutritionally fortified meals to 25,000 school children throughout South Africa.
