Ugali is a staple starch made from maize and water which can be eaten at breakfast, lunch and dinner. It's pure carbohydrate. Their diet lacks protein which essential for a healthy development but they cannot afford, unfortunately.
Ugali是用玉米粉和水混合做成的面团状食品，是本地主食之一。孩子们早餐都吃粥，午餐晚餐除了吃ugali/豆子＋卷心菜外，偶尔有土豆番茄做调味。他们全部吃碳水化合物，严重缺乏肉、蛋类蛋白质，对于孩子的发育和健康十分不利！
Breakfast: ugali and milk tea.
Lunch: ugali and cabbage
Beans for lunch
Their usual breakfast is only (rather watery) porridge. But thanks to our first donation from Brian Weinstein, we have now started to add more food and nutrition to their meals. We hope that through establishing a healthier diet, the kids get their required nutrition for growth and development.
To feed 25 kids it takes an average of 10 kilos of beans per week, which costs around U$10.
Butter & Jam toast for 25 kids would cost U$7.50
