Nduundune Primary School
Daily meals, secondary school scholarships, and sustainable food production for pupils and the broader community in Nzaui Subcounty.
The school Danson and Serah helped build
Nduundune Primary School in Nzaui Subcounty, Makueni County, is not a randomly selected beneficiary. It is the same school that Danson Kiundi Yambu and Serah Mbuve Kiundi helped establish alongside fellow Christians in their community. The Foundation's nutrition programme operates in the same compound they championed into existence.
Irregular attendance at this school is driven primarily by hunger. One nutritious meal on each school day changes that calculation. Children who eat attend. Children who attend learn. Children who learn have a path forward. The meal is the foundation; the scholarship is the door at the end.
Programme components
Vertical Gardens
Sustainable vertical gardens established at the school provide vegetables and traditional grains for pupils on school days, and extend food production capacity to family homesteads in the community.
Daily School Meals
Every pupil at Nduundune receives a nutritious meal on every school day. Hunger is the most commonly cited reason for missed classes in this area. This programme addresses that directly.
Scholarships
Students from Nzaui Subcounty who earn admission to a provincial secondary school or higher receive scholarship support to meet the full cost of attendance. One scholarship opens a door that would otherwise close.
