President’s Letter

2022 was a very productive year for Feed the Hungry San Miguel! At our 34 school kitchens, we were able to provide 70,000 hot lunches every month to nearly 4,000 children. And 373 nutrition workshops were conducted for mothers, to help them continue healthy eating practices at home.

It has been especially satisfying to work in partnership with the mothers in these programs, to help ensure the next generation of San Miguelenses is as strong and healthy as possible. And our alliances with municipality and public-school officials are stronger than ever.
