For background, please see the Ziway School Feeding Program and the Adami Tulu Nursery School pages. Now that the Adami Tulu Nursery School has re-opened and Nursery School and Kindergarten Students are being taught, Misgana Ministries has also started a similar breakfast and lunch feeding program there.

The Ziway school feeding program, in which all students are fed two nutritious meals each day, has been very successful. Parents, teachers, and the students themselves report that they are much healthier, more attentive in class, and have more muscle and skin tone.

On the first day of the feeding program at the Adami Tulu school, all students were measured for their height and weight and this data was recorded. Several children were found to be malnourished. Now that we have this statistical data, we intend to monitor the students' progress.

The feeding program at Adami Tulu started out very basic. However, based on knowledge that we gained from our experience in Ziway, we have upgraded and modernized the Adami Tulu feeding program to keep pace. The feeding area has been made into an all-weather facility, gas stoves are being used, and the same hygiene and good food preparation and serving principles used at Ziway have been implemented here, too.
