Fruit and Milk for everybody Project
Por Joan Grau - English, Mozambique - 24 febrero 2010
Fruit and Milk for everybody Project has been started to provide 90 orphans from Children’s Town with one piece of fruit (banana -40kg-) or cacao and milk daily in the tea-time. This food destiny will be children among 4-14 years.
This decision has been taken due to the total absence of fruit and milk in children’s diet, which is based on rice and shima (puree made of maize).
Some benefits of this food are:
Fruits: mainly provide vitamin C, strengthening bone structure and body, and defending the body from diseases and infections. Fruits are also an important source of fiber.
Milk is one of the mainly calcium and protein sources. The total investment costs are 1898 meticais (47.45 eu) weekly.
