Breakfast - World Vision Thailand

More Than "Breakfast," It is a Small Step Towards True Sustainability

Breakfast is an important meal that children look forward to every day because it is the start of a new day that helps replenish energy. A nutritious breakfast helps children concentrate, be ready to learn, and grow with quality.

Nong Khaofang, a representative of the children under the care of the World Vision Foundation of Thailand, happily shared how much she enjoys having breakfast with her friends in Songkhla Province. The school receiving support from the “Breakfast for Kids Project” did not only receive vegetable seeds, but the staff from World Vision also provided knowledge on planting, caring for, and creating a “Little Farmer’s Garden” at the school. This allows the children to learn how to grow organic vegetables themselves—from planting seeds, watering, to harvesting—to use as fresh and safe ingredients for their breakfast every morning.

What should a good breakfast consist of?

Protein: From eggs, meat, and various beans, to build muscles and ensure healthy growth.
Calcium: From milk, to strengthen bones and teeth.
Carbohydrates: From rice, bread, and various grains, to replenish energy for the day’s activities.
Vitamins, Salts, and Minerals: From vegetables and fruits, to aid digestion and boost the immune system.

When children receive complete nutrition every day they come to school 💚, they will be healthy, focused, ready to learn new things, and grow up appropriately for their age.

🌱The Breakfast for Hungry Kids Project not only helps children and teachers but also extends benefits to parents and the community, who learn about growing kitchen garden vegetables. This knowledge can be further developed to generate income, enhance family stability, improve their quality of life, help reduce food costs, promote sustainability in schools, and add greater value to every donor’s contribution.

Provides knowledge and understanding of the importance of breakfast for children.
Promotes skills in creating their own food sources for the entire community, including growing vegetables, cultivating mushrooms, raising chickens, pigs, and fish, which supports careers.

💖 It doesn’t just fill the children’s stomachs; it also fills the hearts of everyone in the community, because breakfast provides more than just delicious and nutritious food. It also creates smiles, pride, and blooming life skills.
