TASTES LIKE CHICKEN!

The chicken project puts meat on the plate!

The first batch of chickens grew to eating size. The first thing we did was to give the CHILDREN of WISDOM lunch with chicken on their plates - a real treat for kids in the slum. The chicken sits atop rice and beans for a filling and nutritious meal.

Before each meal, one of the children leads in a prayer of thanks.

The kindergarteners eat at their desk in their classroom.

The bigger kids may eat standing up, sitting under a tree or at the playground.

Some of these plates show a lunch with a cooked grain and ground peanuts for protein. Some of the children do not eat enough protein for healthy development. 

We include the peanuts or beans with every lunch. They eat every bite!
