Education is an award-winning, African-led nonprofit tackling classroom hunger with a locally rooted, scalable model. Building on more than a decade of learning by doing, we’re powering a new school-feeding industry and sharing our blueprint to scale sustainable, nutritious, and affordable school-feeding programs across Africa. Today, we serve over 600,000 students daily in Kenya, but what we deliver goes beyond the meal.

Each plate improves nutrition, fuels learning, and creates jobs that uplift entire communities. We are an experienced, trusted non-profit partner that operates with the excellence of a global business, reinvesting the value we create into local economies.

Over the past decade, F4E has expanded its reach exponentially, serving over 200 million cumulative meals since its inception and growing from just 25 children fed daily in 2012 to over 635,000 students receiving meals every day in 2026. We deliver daily meals to children in 2,000+ public schools and early childhood centers. Parents pay for these meals through a mobile money system linked to NFC wristbands, which their children wear and Tap2

Eat in under 5 seconds to access their meal.

Our goal is to sustainably reach 1 million students in Kenya by 2027 and at least another 2 million across Africa by 2030 through our new Center of Excellence and technical assistance arm.
