Nyankunde Food Programme

In April 2005 Friends of CME Trust began funding a project to provide food to the needy and malnourished children in Nyankunde. This was in response to families beginning to return home. The photos on the right show some of the 200 children who benefit from this programme receiving food in September of 2005.

As at May 2011 this project is still underway, feeding up to 200 children in Nyankunde.


 
 

November 2008: Nyankunde Nutritian Project

'Friends of CME Trust' funding for the Nyankunde Nutrition Project between Dec 2007 and April 2008 was reported as follows. Each month £207 was spent on food (maize flour, soya and sugar) and medical consultations for malnourished children under the age of 5 years, approximately 140 receiving assistance every month. Since June 2008, we have increased the monthly amount to £382 because of an increase in the number of malnourished children at Nyankunde.

 
 

2005: Free medical care for children

With families gradually returning to their homes in Nyankunde, besides the need to feed the children, medical care is also required. These photos show children being examined and treated by doctors and nurses at CME hospital in Nyankunde. All children receive free medical care at Nyankunde due to funds we have provided. In addition, (as seen in the photos) Friends of CME Trust has supplied mosquito nets on the hospital wards.
