Thursday 10th October sees the return of World Porridge Day and we would love you to join our celebrations of all things porridge by inviting your friends, family and co-workers to enjoy a porridge breakfast with you between 7th and 20th October.

We’d love to raise £1,125 - enough to provide a mug of porridge to 2,500 Kenyan children for 5 days. Will you help us?

Simply provide the porridge and a variety of tasty toppings for your guests, and in return, ask for donations for African Children’s Fund’s Porridge Clubs programme, that provides a mug of porridge to over 2,000 children in Kenya every school day.

A daily mug of porridge slashes absenteeism caused by food poverty, and in schools where Porridge Clubs have been established, children no longer need to work, scavenge or beg on the streets for food. Regular school attendance leads to greater opportunities for prosperity into adulthood, with improved health, income and literacy for the next generation of adults - AND their children - following as a result of primary school interventions.

Each mug of porridge costs just 9p so for every £9 in donations you receive from your World Porridge Day breakfasts, 100 children will receive a nutritious porridge meal rather than having to work, scavenge or beg on the streets.

Your visitors can simply scan this QR Code to make a donation on our dedicated JustGiving page.

We would love to see photos of your Porridge breakfasts so don't forget to tag us in your social media posts on Facebook, Twitter/X or Instagram, or email your photos to us instead.

If you would like to transfer cash proceeds from your own porridge breakfast or make a donation for World Porridge Day yourself, simply visit our special JustGiving page.

Thank you very much!
